Can pancreatic cancer be cured?

Many people now suffer from pancreatic cancer, which can lead to death if not cured for a long time. Pancreatic cancer is a highly malignant disease. Due to the different types of pancreatic cancer, the natural treatment methods are also different. The treatment of pancreatic cancer requires a long process, and patients must have confidence.

For patients with early pancreatic cancer, it mainly depends on whether appropriate treatment is taken in time. For early pancreatic cancer, surgical resection is the most effective treatment in the surgical treatment of pancreatic cancer. Whipple surgery is the main surgical method for pancreatic cancer, but pancreatic fistula is prone to occur after the operation, which is the main cause of death in Whipple surgery. Pancreaticojejunostomy can be performed to prevent the occurrence of pancreatic fistula. In addition, pancreatic cancer surgery is difficult and requires high precision, so patients are advised to go to a regular large hospital for surgery.

For patients with advanced pancreatic cancer, it mainly depends on whether the treatment method is appropriate and the patient's physical condition. Clinically, the treatment methods for advanced pancreatic cancer mainly include radiotherapy, chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine treatment of pancreatic cancer. Although pancreatic cancer is not sensitive to chemotherapy drugs, chemotherapy can be used in the treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer to prolong the survival period to a certain extent and relieve some of the symptoms. Radiotherapy has a more direct killing effect on cancer cells. Combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer, it can improve the treatment effect and prolong the patient's survival period. In addition, in view of the toxic and side effects of chemotherapy on the human body, traditional Chinese medicine treatment can be combined in the treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer to play a role in increasing efficacy and reducing toxicity. For patients with advanced pancreatic cancer with a wide range of metastasis, weak physical function, and difficulty in tolerating chemotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine can be used for conservative treatment. Although the short-term effect is not as obvious as chemotherapy, the long-term effect is good, and it has a significant effect in improving the quality of life and prolonging survival.

The treatment of pancreatic cancer is also closely related to the patient's physical function. Only with good physical function and strong immunity can one resist the development of cancer and tolerate various drug treatments. Therefore, improving immune function and enhancing resistance to tumors is extremely important for pancreatic cancer patients, especially those in the middle and late stages of pancreatic cancer. In terms of diet, pancreatic cancer patients should eat more foods with anti-cancer and analgesic effects, such as walnuts, bitter melon, malt, etc.; they should eat more anti-infection foods, such as olives, black plums, mung beans, bitter melon, etc.; avoid greasy and high-fat foods. You can also rely on taking Chinese medicine that has the effect of tonifying the spleen and kidney, such as the Jianpi Yishen Granules of the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences to enhance immune function.

What should we do when facing the disease? Perhaps excessive worry will only make the disease worse, so for the sake of your own health, it is best to maintain a good attitude. I believe that many pancreatic cancer patients and their families want to know a common question, that is, "Can pancreatic cancer be cured?" Today, experts will answer your doubts.

The treatment effect of pancreatic cancer is closely related to whether the treatment method is appropriate and the patient's physical condition. Therefore, whether pancreatic cancer can be cured depends on the actual situation. It is very necessary for patients to maintain a positive and optimistic attitude. It is the consensus of most doctors to scientifically combine the treatment methods of pancreatic cancer and perform standardized comprehensive treatment.
