The appropriate method must be used to treat rectal cancer

Nowadays, rectal cancer is considered a common tumor disease, which can seriously endanger the patient's health and body. If the patient does not take timely treatment for rectal cancer, it may affect the development of the disease, which will be very dangerous. Therefore, everyone should understand the treatment of rectal cancer in order to have a better choice. The following is an introduction to the treatment of rectal cancer.

Treatments for rectal cancer include:

1. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are also common treatments for rectal cancer. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are treatments that use various rays of different energies to irradiate rectal cancer tumors to inhibit and kill cancer cells. Radiotherapy can be used alone or in conjunction with surgery, chemotherapy, etc. as part of comprehensive treatment to improve the cure rate of rectal cancer. A period of radiotherapy before surgery can reduce the size of the tumor, which can give rectal cancer patients who were originally unable to undergo surgery the opportunity to undergo surgery.

2. Removing the tumor in the early stage of rectal cancer is a common treatment method for rectal cancer. The progression of rectal cancer is that tumor cells invade the mucosal layer, muscle layer and then the outer cortex of the large intestine. In the early stage of rectal cancer, since tumor cells only invade the mucosal layer, surgical resection can achieve good therapeutic effects. In the late stage, the lesions of rectal cancer metastasize and turn into a systemic disease. The overall quality of rectal cancer patients is poor, and most of them can no longer tolerate the trauma caused by surgical resection.

The above is the treatment of rectal cancer. I hope everyone can understand it one by one. As long as the treatment methods of rectal cancer are combined early, patients can control the disease in time and regain their confidence. So please remember these treatment methods of rectal cancer, which will definitely be useful for the patient's condition. I wish all patients can fight the disease to the end.
