What should I do if nasopharyngeal carcinoma metastasizes to the liver? What are the dietary treatments?

Once nasopharyngeal carcinoma develops to the middle and late stages, the possibility of metastasis increases, so patients must take good measures in their lives. Below, Xiaobian will introduce to you: What should I do if nasopharyngeal carcinoma metastasizes to the liver? What is dietary therapy?

There are three specific treatments for NPC metastases to the liver:

1. Combination chemotherapy: Combination chemotherapy is often used for mid-term chemotherapy of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and its effect is better than single-drug chemotherapy. It is usually used in combination with mid-term radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma, which has good short-term efficacy, but little benefit for long-term treatment.

2. Radiotherapy: Radiotherapy for the treatment of mid-stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma can directly kill cancer cells, but it can also damage normal cells in the body. Radiotherapy is mostly used for body functions. Patients with mid-stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma are better off, and the dose, irradiation range and course of treatment should be carefully selected.

3. Cell immunotherapy: Patients with mid-stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma generally have poor physical fitness. Cell immunotherapy is used clinically. Cell immunotherapy can improve the body's immunity and kill cancer cells. It can be used for adjuvant treatment of mid-stage radiotherapy and chemotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma, improve adverse symptoms, effectively treat the spread and metastasis of mid-stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma, improve the quality of life, and prolong survival.

There are many dietary treatments for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Here are some:

1. Imperata root and reed root tea is a common medicinal food for the treatment of nasopharyngeal cancer. 30g of fresh Imperata root and fresh reed root are used as tea. It has the effects of cooling blood and stopping bleeding, clearing heat and promoting body fluid, and diuresis. It is most suitable for people with hot qi and blood and insufficient yin fluid. However, it is not suitable for people with spleen and stomach deficiency.

2. Astragalus stewed duck is a dietary therapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. 15g of Astragalus and 200g of duck, stewed until cooked. It has the effects of tonifying the middle and replenishing qi, nourishing yin and nourishing the stomach; suitable for people with both qi and yin deficiency; not suitable for people with loose stools.
