Can lymphoma be treated with surgery? Is the effect good?

1. Local compression symptoms caused by swollen lymph nodes are common symptoms of lymphoma. If the lymph nodes are swollen, esophageal compression can cause dysphagia; superior vena cava compression causes superior vena cava syndrome; cough, chest tightness, dyspnea and cyanosis caused by tracheal compression are caused by deep lymph nodes in lymphoma symptoms.

2. For patients, you can choose foods with anti-tumor effects, such as shepherd's purse tea, day lily, turtle, coix seed, arrowhead mushroom, white radish, etc. They can increase the activity of macrophages to phagocytize cancer cells, which is beneficial to anti-cancer.

3. Lymphoma can be treated surgically. Malignant lymphoma originating from the gastrointestinal tract should be treated surgically. The site of the lesion can be identified, the lesion tissue can be removed, and a follow-up treatment plan can be developed. The resection rate of lymphoma is higher than that of cancer. Subtotal gastrectomy is feasible for gastric lymphoma, but total gastrectomy should be used with caution.

Intestinal lymphoma can remove the local diseased intestine and the corresponding mesentery. For endless tumors, silver clips can be fixed during surgery to facilitate postoperative radiotherapy. If the ulcer of gastrointestinal lymphoma is large and the involvement is wide, it often leads to acute abdomen, such as gastrointestinal bleeding, acute perforation or intestinal obstruction, and emergency surgery should be performed.

4. Generally speaking, surgery plays a certain role in the treatment of lymphoma, especially in the early stages of cancer. Malignant lymphoma can affect bones and joints. If the thoracic and lumbar spine are involved, it will cause body deformity and affect the stability and activity of the motor system. If the spinal canal causes neurological symptoms, pain, and paraplegia, surgical treatment can be chosen first.
