How much does lung cancer surgery cost

summary

A colleague loves smoking very much. He doesn't smoke enough at the end of the day. Recently, he has been coughing repeatedly. He has phlegm in his throat and even coughed up blood. The doctor said that this is advanced lung cancer. Now let me talk about how much money is needed for lung cancer surgery.

How much does lung cancer surgery cost

First, the earlier the treatment of lung cancer, the lower the cost. The cost of chemotherapy for lung cancer must be determined by various factors according to the actual situation of patients. And chemotherapy is not calculated by once, but by a course of treatment, a course of treatment includes several cycles. The specific effect depends on the sensitivity of patients to chemotherapy and the degree of illness.

Second, it depends on which kind of lung cancer it is, and different treatment methods should be adopted. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy plus surgery are often used for small cell lung cancer, while surgery is the first choice for non-small cell lung cancer, followed by radiotherapy or chemotherapy. For example, a small number of stage I and II patients with small cell lung cancer can be treated by surgery, followed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy. For non-small cell lung cancer, surgery is not allowed due to lung function or patient's body condition, or the tumor site or some stage III patients lose the opportunity of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy can be used first, and then surgery can be achieved.

Third: it is suggested that patients should receive a treatment in time, and not be greedy for cheap treatment in some informal clinics. If they do some related treatment in some formal hospitals, the cost will not be higher than that in some private hospitals.

matters needing attention

If there is a problem, seek medical treatment as soon as possible, and stay away from the previous pathogenic environment. Environmental factors and smoking have a great relationship, as well as some of their own diseases, such as tuberculosis metastasis. Others are caused by exposure to radioactive gas.
