summary

Interventional treatment of lung cancer, which is a lot of patients want to understand, lung cancer occurs in bronchial mucosa epithelium, so it is called bronchial lung cancer. Serious harm to the health of patients, but there are many ways to treat lung cancer, today we see how to do lung cancer interventional surgery.

How does lung cancer intervene operation do

First, we know that surgical treatment depends on exposure after surgery; medical treatment depends on medication; medical treatment depends on treatment; However, interventional therapy is not an open and exposed operation, nor is it a drug-based operation. It is between the two. Therefore, American doctors named it intervention, which is called interventional therapy. "Interventional therapy" is equal to "surgery without surgery".

Second, interventional treatment is a new treatment method between surgery and internal medicine, including intravascular intervention and non vascular intervention. After more than 30 years of development, it is now known as the three pillar disciplines together with surgery and internal medicine. In short, interventional therapy is a minimally invasive treatment method that makes a small channel with a diameter of a few millimeters on the blood vessels and skin without exposing the lesions, or through the original pipes of the human body and under the guidance of imaging equipment (angiography machine, fluoroscopy machine, CT, Mr, B ultrasound).

Third, to be specific, it is to inject different drugs directly into the lesion through blood vessels or skin, change the blood supply of the lesion and directly act on the lesion. For the tumor, it is "starvation (blocking tumor blood vessels) + killing (high concentration of anticancer drugs)" tumor, for the blood thrombus, it is "crushing thrombus + dissolving thrombus"; Different materials and equipment can also be placed in blood vessels or other pipes of the body (bile duct, esophagus, intestine and trachea) to restore the normal function of these pipes. Blood flow can be restored in blood vessels, intrahepatic cholestasis can be alleviated in bile ducts, food intake can be improved in esophagus, digestive function of intestine can be restored in intestine, and respiration can be improved in trachea.

matters needing attention

Intravascular interventional therapy for lung cancer has the advantages of minimally invasive, low side effects and strong short-term curative effect, but it can not replace other methods of comprehensive treatment. Therefore, patients with lung cancer who can not be operated on need reasonable treatment.
