Knowledge and understanding of the treatment principles of cardiac cancer

As the name implies, cardia cancer is also a type of cancer. A clear understanding of the treatment principles of cardia cancer is the key to clinical treatment of cardia cancer. Therefore, below, we will introduce the specific treatment principles of cardia cancer in detail.

Radiotherapy: Relevant studies in recent years have shown that this treatment for cardiac cancer can improve the surgical resection rate of patients, reduce the positive rate of lymph node metastasis, and significantly improve the survival rate of patients with cardiac cancer. However, radiotherapy has no advantage in improving the long-term efficacy of patients with cardiac cancer, and it will bring greater side effects to patients with cardiac cancer, which is sometimes difficult for patients to tolerate.

Chemotherapy: This treatment method for cardiac cancer is generally used for patients with advanced stage after surgery or who cannot remove the cancer, including neoadjuvant chemotherapy, adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery, intraperitoneal chemotherapy, and intra-arterial chemotherapy. For patients with radical postoperative cardiac cancer, postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy can improve the patient's survival rate; for patients with advanced cardiac cancer, chemotherapy can significantly improve the short-term efficacy, increase the local control rate of tumors, improve the quality of life, and prolong life.

The above is a detailed description of the treatment principles for cardiac cancer. I hope it can help everyone understand the treatment knowledge of cardiac cancer and cure cardiac cancer in time.
