What does tumor thrombus mean

Tumor thrombosis is one of the common complications of tumors. It is a type of complication that occurs when the tumor spreads, grows, and metastasizes, leading to blood vessel accumulation, abnormal blood coagulation, and blood vessel blockage. It will seriously endanger people's health. For patients who already have tumors, when tumor thrombus is formed, especially when it grows in important organs or important parts of the body, it will directly endanger the patient's life.

1. This disease can affect the survival period and quality of life of cancer patients. Cancer thrombi occurring in important tissues and organs of the human body can more seriously endanger the lives of cancer patients and even cause the patients to die quickly. Since cancer thrombi can occur in large and small arteries and veins, lymphatic vessels, and microcirculation, the clinical symptoms and signs they cause are relatively complex, and there are certain particularities in diagnosis and treatment. Therefore, we must fully understand it so that we can provide timely, accurate, reasonable and comprehensive treatment and correction in clinical tumor work, delay the progression of the disease, and improve the survival rate and quality of life of patients.

2. Blood vessels are an important part of the human body. The presence of cancer thrombi in blood vessels indicates that cancerous tissue has metastasized to the blood vessels or lymphatic vessels. Symptoms such as swelling, loss of appetite, and physical weakness should have appeared inside the body. These symptoms indicate that cancer cells have multiplied and have now metastasized or metastasized to distant places and begun to metastasize inside the body. At this time, you must not be careless and need to go to the hospital for examination and receive chemotherapy under the doctor's instructions to prevent the metastasis and growth of cancer cells.

3. The "vascular tumor thrombosis" recorded in the pathological examination report refers to the visible cancer cell clusters in the blood vessels of the resected tissue specimens. Compared with patients without vascular tumor thrombosis, this type of patients are more likely to have recurrence and metastasis. Generally speaking, patients with vascular tumor thrombosis need to receive postoperative combined chemotherapy.

4. Cancer thrombus is a blood clot formed by the growth of cancer cells in the capillaries! These are all malignant lesions, so they need to be treated and improved in a timely manner, otherwise the malignancy will increase rapidly. It is recommended to match the treatment plan according to the pathology.

5. Most tumors are considered advanced only when they have distant metastasis to other organs. The presence of tumor thrombi in blood vessels only means that tumor cells are attached to the blood vessel wall with the blood flow and have not grown in other internal organs. Moreover, not all thrombi are living cancer cells, there are other components, but the presence of tumor thrombi in blood vessels greatly increases the risk of distant metastasis. The survival rate of advanced diseases with distant metastasis and diseases with tumor thrombi in blood vessels is different, and the treatment is also different.
