Where will breast cancer metastasize

The lung is the most common site of breast cancer metastasis. The common sites of breast cancer metastasis are lung and pleura, bones, skin and soft tissue, liver, and brain. The treatment methods and treatment effects vary for metastases in different parts. It starts with a dry cough, which is ineffective against antibiotics. The commonly used treatment method is chemotherapy containing platinum anticancer drugs, and most patients will completely recover in a short period of time.

You need to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment plan. Chemotherapy is generally chosen. Chemotherapy has relatively large side effects, and it needs to be combined with 16.2% ginsenoside Rh2 (life-protecting factor) for conditioning. Even if it cannot be cured, you can survive with the tumor for a long time.

Pleural metastasis usually manifests as pleural effusion. The effusion can be drained by thoracentesis, and drugs can be injected for intracavitary treatment.

Bone metastasis is also very common, usually in the thoracic spine, lumbar spine, pelvis and ribs. It manifests as bone pain and is less responsive to chemotherapy. Commonly used effective methods include endocrine therapy, radionuclide therapy and radiotherapy.

Metastases to skin and soft tissues are generally sensitive to chemotherapy and endocrine therapy and have good short-term effects. However, it should be noted that some patients only present with isolated metastatic lesions at the beginning.

Liver metastases are generally not very sensitive to chemotherapy and endocrine therapy. Interventional therapy can often achieve good short-term results, but the extension of survival is not very obvious. Brain metastases generally have a poor prognosis and are often treated with chemotherapy.
