Comprehensive treatment of lung cancer patients

Currently lung cancer is surgery, and other treatment measures radiation therapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, Chinese medicine treatment.

(1) Surgical treatment:

-- We all know that in addition to the surgery, there are cryosurgery, high temperature, laser, chemical surgery, such as tumor surgery electrocautery. Including radical resection surgery and palliative resection. Jinyun of surgery can be carried out internal ∪, accounting for 40 per cent of the total number of patients under for surgery late palliative surgery.

? Surgical resection is the treatment of lung cancer is still the primary means of effective surgical indications and the choice of the types of operation primarily on the basis of violations of the tumor location, extent and the patient's general condition is especially cardiopulmonary function reserves circumstances. Surgical resection of lesions principle is thoroughly, and to maximize the health of the lung tissue retained.

? Early lung cancer should be implemented radical lobectomy, in the complete resection of primary tumor and hilar lymph nodes removed at the same time, it is necessary to healthy lung tissue preserved as far as possible, so as to achieve survival purposes; more advanced lung cancer patients should strive for surgical resection the primary tumor, has been transferred as far as possible removal of the lymph nodes, supplemented by radiation therapy and chemotherapy and other treatment. Generally speaking, 20% of patients suitable for surgery.

? Surgical resection of the 5-year survival rate of 30% -40%, mainly surgical and pathological effects of cell types and TNM staging.

(2) Radiation Therapy:

? Intracavitary radiation therapy including in vitro irradiation; use of the equipment, including compact spindles, X-ray machines, cobalt artillery, is the use of accelerators, and developed in recent years after the installation of the various / "photon knife /" / "X-knife / ".

-- Can be used as adjuvant therapy after surgery to improve the rate of surgical resection and postoperative long-term survival of inoperable or recurrent squamous cell carcinoma can also be transferred radiotherapy;

? Simple radiotherapy and radiotherapy-integrated radiotherapy. Simple radical radiotherapy at palliative radiotherapy and radiotherapy. According to the pathological type of lung cancer, lesions, it has transferred, pulmonary function and general condition to decide. Integrated radiotherapy combined with radiotherapy is surgery, chemotherapy to the treatment than a simple treatment can increase the survival rate.

(3) chemical treatment:

-- In the treatment of lung cancer has an important position, according to the current view, whether early or late, whether surgery or radiotherapy should be combined with chemotherapy can increase the survival rate.

? Clear in the diagnosis of small cell lung cancer, preoperative treatment should be an induction chemotherapy, surgical resection again. Continue after chemotherapy. Adenocarcinoma and large cell carcinoma of the regular chemotherapy. For advanced unresectable or lesions can be carried out by local bronchial artery infusion chemotherapy;

(4) immune therapy:

? Immune therapy is to use the body's immune agents enhance immunity, the body of the elimination of anti-tumor immune suppression or elimination of the residual tumor cells. Can be used as post-operative chemotherapy and radiotherapy for adjuvant therapy.

-- Is still not mature enough is a treatment, there are many problems to be solved, just as in other clinical treatment of adjuvant therapy.

(5) TCM treatment:

? Current Chinese medicine is not ideal for lung cancer, it can not be suitable for surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy for advanced patients. It can relieve symptoms and relieve pain and improve the quality of life in the clinical applications are more common.

(6) of gene therapy:

The current biological cancer gene therapy, mainly from tumor angiogenesis and has maintained close relations start with theory, the main use of gene technology, anti-angiogenesis inhibitor used to prevent blood vessel growth, the capillaries in tumor shrinkage and cut off nutrition supply to meet the head of the cancer treatment, the best results at home and abroad such as:-hydroxy Tali, it is raw materials from Cinobufotalin isolated and synthesized to completely kill the human body targeting tumor cells and inhibit tumor angiogenesis Generation of monomer composition.

(7) other treatment:

? Freezing treatment, heat treatment, laser therapy, although there are certain effect on lung cancer, but restricted for various reasons, do not generally use, the exact effect of the lack of convincing information.
