Understand the specific treatment measures for nasopharyngeal carcinoma

The harm caused by nasopharyngeal cancer makes everyone very afraid of nasopharyngeal cancer. Remember, the key to the treatment of nasopharyngeal cancer is early detection and early treatment. We also need a thorough understanding of the treatment methods of nasopharyngeal cancer. Below, experts will analyze the treatment methods of clinical nasopharyngeal cancer in detail.

1. For nasopharyngeal carcinoma, single radiotherapy is usually used to treat the tumor in the nasopharynx and preventive external radiotherapy is performed on the cervical lymph nodes. The treatment of stage I nasopharyngeal carcinoma generally does not require adjuvant chemotherapy.

2. Treatment of stage II NPC usually uses single radiotherapy with external radiotherapy to the nasopharyngeal tumor and prophylactic radiotherapy to the neck.

3. In the treatment of rhinitis cancer, a comprehensive treatment method for nasopharyngeal cancer can be considered, which is mainly radiotherapy combined with drug therapy. Chemotherapy can be performed before, during or after radiotherapy according to the specific situation of the nasopharyngeal cancer patient. Currently, the more commonly used treatment for nasopharyngeal cancer is radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy.

4. If the prognosis of NPC patients is poor, systemic chemotherapy combined with palliative radiotherapy can be used for the treatment of these NPC patients. Patients with distant metastasis of NPC should also consider the use of new treatment methods provided by clinical trials.

The above is an introduction to the treatment measures for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The key to the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is early detection and early treatment, so the early manifestations of nasopharyngeal carcinoma must be clearly understood so that nasopharyngeal carcinoma can be detected and treated early.
