However, the treatment effect of advanced cervical cancer is still not ideal, and its curative effect is related to the treatment method and the physical condition of patients. How to treat advanced cervical cancer best to tell you.

How is advanced cervical cancer treated best

Method 1: radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy were used. The scope of resection included the whole uterus, bilateral appendages, upper and paravaginal tissues, and pelvic lymph nodes (para cervical lymph nodes, obturator lymph nodes, intra iliac lymph nodes, extra iliac lymph nodes, and lower common iliac lymph nodes). The operation requires thorough, safe, strict control of indications and prevention of complications.

Method 2: radiotherapy is the first choice for cervical cancer, which can be applied to all stages of cervical cancer. The scope of radiation includes the cervix, affected vagina, uterine body, parametrial tissue and pelvic lymph nodes. The internal irradiation is mainly aimed at the cervical primary lesion and its adjacent parts, including the uterine body, the upper part of the vagina and its adjacent para uterine tissue ("a") points. External irradiation mainly focused on the "B" point of pelvic lymph node distribution. Intracavitary radium (RA) or 137 cesium (137Cs) were used as internal radiation sources, mainly for primary cervical lesions. The external radiation source was 60Co, which was mainly aimed at the metastases outside the primary lesion, including the pelvic lymph node drainage area. At present, internal irradiation is advocated for early cervical cancer. For advanced cancer, especially for patients with large local tumor, active bleeding or infection, external irradiation should be used first.

Method 3: chemotherapy is not sensitive to most anticancer drugs so far, and the effective rate of chemotherapy is less than 15%. Advanced patients can be treated with chemotherapy, radiotherapy and other comprehensive treatment.
