Some time ago, my grandfather felt sore throat. We all urged him to go to the hospital for physical examination. He just didn't listen to me. He just took some lozenges and so on. But the effect was not good until he went to the hospital for examination and found that it was esophageal cancer. Today, let me talk about how to treat esophageal cancer.

How to treat esophageal cancer

First, radiotherapy or radiotherapy based comprehensive treatment of esophageal cancer, surgery is limited to radiotherapy failure. Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine and targeted therapy should be given to the patients with postoperative recurrence and distant metastasis to improve their symptoms. Early detection, early diagnosis and early treatment should be emphasized. The principle of treatment is comprehensive treatment based on operation. The main treatment methods are surgery, chemotherapy, immunity and traditional Chinese medicine.

Second: radical operation: it is to completely remove the esophageal cancer and its surrounding lymph nodes and reconstruct the digestive tract. However, it should be noted that the early esophageal cancer has the characteristics of multi-point origin, so in principle, the full length of the esophageal cancer should be removed and frozen section should be made during the operation to observe that there is no residual cancer at the end of the esophagus. Early esophageal cancer often has the invasion of cancer tissue under the straw membrane, so the scope of resection should be wide. Can not be generalized, blind medication will only lead to accelerated cancer.

Third: before treatment, we should fully understand the specificity and prognostic factors of tumor, and make appropriate treatment plan according to specific cases, so as to improve the treatment effect. In the process of treatment, it is necessary to prevent harmful and unhelpful over treatment. After the main treatment, regular follow-up is very important. The patients were treated with surgery combined with chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The dynamic therapy of traditional Chinese medicine, taking Chinese herbal medicine treatment, can effectively control the disease.
