Is liver cancer terminal do operation good

summary

My aunt was found to have liver cancer a few days ago, and she is in advanced stage. This news is hard to believe for us. Then we asked the attending doctor whether to have surgery for advanced liver cancer. Now let me talk about whether to have surgery for advanced liver cancer.

Is liver cancer terminal do operation good

First, it is very difficult to treat liver cancer in its advanced stage. Some of the more mild treatments seem to have little effect. Surgical treatment is the first choice for liver cancer, through the complete removal of tumor tissue, to achieve the purpose of cure. There are many methods for the treatment of liver cancer, now the most commonly used in clinical radiotherapy, chemotherapy, drug treatment, surgical treatment, general liver cancer patients in the hospital after diagnosis, as long as it is not late metastasis, liver cancer doctors will recommend surgical treatment.

Second, in addition to hepatectomy, liver transplantation is the best choice, especially for those patients with liver cirrhosis and decompensated liver function. At present, about 4000 cases of liver transplantation are carried out every year in China, and the proportion of liver cancer patients is as high as 40%. There are many criteria for the indication of liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma, mainly focusing on the size and number of tumors, vascular invasion and lymph node metastasis.

Third: the effect of surgical treatment of liver cancer is better, but it is recommended to cooperate with drug treatment or chemotherapy to avoid recurrence. The surgical treatment of liver cancer is to achieve the purpose of cure through the complete removal of tumor tissue. With the development of modern liver surgery technology, tumor size is not the key factor to restrict the operation. Whether the tumor can be resected or not and the curative effect of resection are not only related to the size and number of tumor, but also closely related to liver function, degree of cirrhosis, tumor location, tumor boundary, complete capsule and venous tumor thrombus.

matters needing attention

It is difficult for patients with advanced liver cancer to choose whether to do surgery, but the effect of surgery is still very big. But some people do not dare to try, afraid that if the operation is not successful, late relapse of the disease how to do. In the whole process of treatment should maintain a good attitude.
