What is the recurrence rate after surgery for early liver cancer?

Liver cancer is now a common and extremely dangerous malignant tumor in my country. Generally, patients prefer surgical treatment. However, patients with liver cancer cannot relax after surgery because the terrible thing about cancer is that it is easy to relapse, which brings a lot of trouble to patients. So what is the probability of recurrence of liver disease?

The recurrence rate after surgery is related to the size and location of the tumor, the boundaries of the surgical margin and the skills of the surgeon. Any improper treatment after liver cancer surgery may lead to local recurrence and distant metastasis of liver cancer.

The recurrence and metastasis of liver cancer has become one of the key factors affecting the efficacy of treatment and long-term survival of liver cancer patients, and is also a hot topic in current liver cancer research.

The main reasons for the high recurrence rate of liver cancer after surgery are as follows:

1. There are still relatively small lesions in the liver that were not discovered during the surgical resection, so the remaining cancer cells continue to proliferate and grow after the operation.

2. Liver cancer cells are highly malignant and grow very rapidly. In addition, the liver has an abundant blood supply, which makes it easy for cancer cells to invade the liver's blood vessels. From there, they can easily spread to other parts of the liver through the blood. During surgical resection, rough or excessive squeezing may occur, which can easily cause cancer cells to enter the blood and spread to other parts of the liver.

3. The occurrence of liver cancer is closely related to liver cirrhosis. When liver cirrhosis occurs, other organs in the body are also undergoing canceration at the same time or at different times, but it is not detected at the time.

4. New tumors grow back on the liver.

The reason why the recurrence rate after liver cancer surgery is so high is because the treatment is not thorough enough. Liver cancer is a systemic disease, but surgical treatment only removes visible tumors. It is a local treatment method. If the residual disease and cancer cells are not cleaned up, then the recurrence and metastasis of liver cancer is only a matter of time. To prevent surgical recurrence, we must solve the problem fundamentally. We can use Chinese medicine conditioning after surgery. The combination of Chinese and Western medicine has a good consolidation treatment effect on patients after early surgery.

For patients with advanced liver cancer, if they miss the best time for surgery, they can still stabilize their condition by taking Chinese medicine. This is because the advantages of Chinese medicine are to strengthen the body and eliminate evil, replenish qi and consolidate the foundation, and treat both the symptoms and the root causes. It can fundamentally inhibit the growth of tumors according to the causes of tumor formation, and improve the patient's immune function and physical fitness, and improve the patient's physical condition after surgery.

Traditional Chinese medicine is a whole-body conditioning method, focusing on the treatment of liver cancer. Traditional Chinese medicine mainly treats liver cancer by replenishing the middle qi, eliminating phlegm and dampness, softening and dispersing nodules, attacking and expelling toxins, and finally making the human body's immunity reach a balance in its natural state, so as to control the disease. This is the "triple balance therapy".

The recurrence rate after liver cancer surgery is very high, but the recurrence rate can be reduced if the patient pays attention to maintenance after surgery or cooperates with Chinese medicine for conditioning. Therefore, selective and targeted treatment is an effective way to prevent surgical recurrence. As long as the relevant things are done well, the patient's condition can be stabilized.

Experts kindly remind all friends: Postoperative care for cancer patients is very important. We sincerely hope that every postoperative patient can build a solid protective wall for the body through reasonable conditioning and move forward happily on the road to health.
