Detailed introduction to effective methods for treating colorectal cancer

In recent years, the incidence of colorectal cancer has been increasing, which makes people very worried, fearing that they will suffer from this disease. If patients do not combine colorectal cancer treatment methods in time, it may affect the development of the disease. Therefore, everyone should understand the treatment of colorectal cancer so that patients can control the disease in time. The following will introduce the treatment methods of colorectal cancer.

Treatments for colorectal cancer include:

1. Chemotherapy: After radical resection of colorectal cancer, about 50% of cases still have recurrence and metastasis, mainly because the hidden metastatic lesions were not found before surgery or the lesions were not completely removed during surgery. This is one of the treatment methods for colorectal cancer.

2. Radiotherapy: It is usually used as an additional means of surgery and chemotherapy to reduce the chance of tumor recurrence. It is a common treatment for colorectal cancer. Some people believe that: ① Preoperative radiotherapy can shrink the tumor, improve the resection rate, reduce regional lymph node metastasis, intraoperative cancer cell spread and local recurrence; ② Postoperative radiotherapy: For cases of radical surgery, if the tumor has penetrated the intestinal wall, invaded local lymph nodes, lymphatic vessels and blood vessels, or there is residual tumor after surgery, but there is no distant metastasis, postoperative radiotherapy is appropriate; ③ Simple radiotherapy: For cases of advanced rectal cancer, small doses of radiotherapy can sometimes have a temporary hemostatic and analgesic effect.

3. Surgical treatment: The only way to completely cure colorectal cancer is to remove the tumor at an early stage. If the exploration finds that the cancer has metastasized, but the diseased intestinal curve is still free, the colorectal cancer should be removed in principle to avoid intestinal obstruction in the future; on the other hand, the tumor is often eroded, bleeding or accompanied by secondary infection, and resection can improve the overall condition. This is also a treatment measure for colorectal cancer.

The above is the treatment of colorectal cancer. I hope everyone can understand it one by one. As long as the treatment method of colorectal cancer is selected as soon as possible, the patient can control the disease in time and regain confidence. So please remember the treatment method of colorectal cancer, which will have an effect on the patient's condition. I wish all patients can fight the disease to the end.
