Analysis of common treatment methods for central lung cancer

Central lung cancer is a tumor disease that seriously threatens people's health. It must be treated in time. What are the common treatments for central lung cancer ? Here are some common treatments for central lung cancer.

In general, common treatments for central lung cancer include:

Treatments for central lung cancer include surgery, chemoradiotherapy, and biological immunotherapy. Surgery is often the first choice for central lung cancer. However, since central lung cancer is located near the hilum of the lung, surgical resection is difficult and only complete lung resection can be performed, which is often difficult for the patient to bear. Therefore, individualized comprehensive treatment plans are often advocated in the clinic for the treatment of mid- and late-stage central lung cancer, such as a comprehensive treatment plan of postoperative chemoradiotherapy or biological immunotherapy.

Central lung cancer is mostly squamous cell carcinoma and small cell lung cancer, which are relatively sensitive to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and can effectively improve the local control rate of tumors. However, radiotherapy and chemotherapy as the only treatment method for central lung cancer have great limitations, and can produce great toxic side effects on the human body, which is not conducive to the patient's postoperative recovery.

More and more clinical practices have proved that biological immunotherapy is a good treatment for central lung cancer. By increasing the activity of the patient's own immune cells, it can effectively improve the patient's autonomous anti-cancer immune ability, comprehensively inhibit the tumor cell load, and prevent the recurrence and metastasis of tumor cells after surgery. At the same time, it can also reduce the patient's adverse symptoms such as loss of appetite, eliminate residual cancer cells in the body, and ultimately improve the patient's quality of life and prolong the effective survival expectancy of patients with central lung cancer.

The above is an introduction to the common treatment methods for central lung cancer. I believe everyone has some understanding of this. Patients should choose the treatment method for central lung cancer that suits them according to their actual condition and should not choose blindly.
