How to treat cardia cancer

What kind of disease is cardia cancer? In fact, cardia cancer is an adenocarcinoma that occurs in the gastric cardia, which is about 2 cm below the esophagogastric junction. So, how should we cure cardia cancer? Next, let me tell you what are the treatments for cardia cancer .

(1) Total gastrectomy: It is suitable for the lower end of the esophagus, the entire stomach, the duodenal bulb, the spleen, the greater omentum and the lesser omentum, and uses the jejunum to anastomose the proximal end of the esophagus. Therefore, this is one of the treatment methods for cardiac cancer.

(2) Extended total gastrectomy: The above scope of total gastrectomy is suitable for the addition of the distal pancreas (en bloc resection), and the lymph nodes around the celiac artery are cleared. For the treatment of cardiac cancer, esophagogastric anastomosis can be performed at the same time.

(3) Proximal subtotal gastrectomy: This type of surgery for cardiac cancer is mainly suitable for the proximal gastric tissue between the lower end of the esophagus, the spleen, and the line from the midpoint of the lower 1/3 of the lesser curvature to the midpoint of the greater curvature of the stomach, and esophagogastric anastomosis is performed.

(4) Extended proximal subtotal gastrectomy: It is suitable for the above scope of proximal subtotal gastrectomy plus the distal pancreas (en bloc resection), and clearing the lymph nodes around the celiac artery, and performing esophagogastric anastomosis. Therefore, this is also a more effective treatment for cardiac cancer.

The above is a detailed description of the treatment of cardia cancer. I hope it can help everyone understand the knowledge of cardia cancer and cure cardia cancer in time. If you have other questions about cardia cancer, you can contact our online experts to answer your questions.
