Choose regular and professional treatment for gastric cancer

Gastric cancer ranks first among digestive tract cancers. The early symptoms are not obvious, and many patients do not discover the disease until the middle or late stages. The treatment of gastric cancer is a topic of concern to many patients. What are the main treatment methods for gastric cancer? Let the experts tell us in detail about the treatment of gastric cancer .

At present, surgical resection of the lesion is the main treatment for gastric cancer. There are two types of resection: radical resection and palliative resection. Radical resection may cure some gastric cancer patients. Therefore, as long as the patient's general condition is good and can tolerate surgery, and no distant metastasis is found, surgical resection of the tumor, lymph node clearance and tumor-infiltrated tissue should be performed. Palliative surgery includes short-circuit surgery, or only resection of the primary tumor without lymph node clearance and complete resection of surrounding infiltrated tissue.

Chemotherapy is no longer necessary after radical surgery for early-stage gastric cancer, but chemotherapy should be given after surgery for advanced gastric cancer. For patients who cannot tolerate surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy or traditional Chinese medicine treatment can be performed under the guidance of a doctor to improve the quality of life and prolong life.

Gastric cancer is a cancer of the digestive tract, so the patient's diet is very important. Experts recommend that patients exchange dietary experiences with each other. Exchanging dietary experiences with patients can not only learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, but also help increase appetite, which is very necessary for the treatment of gastric cancer.
