How high is the cure rate of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and is related to treatment methods and diet

What is the cure rate of nasopharyngeal carcinoma? It is related to treatment methods and diet!

1. The incidence rate in men is 2 to 3 times that in women. The age distribution of case reports in China ranges from 3 to 90 years old, but 30 to 50 years old is the high-incidence age area. It often occurs in the hidden nests and roof walls of the nasopharynx. The lesions can be nodular, ulcerative, mucosal infiltration, etc., most of which are poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinomas. Others may be adenocarcinomas, undifferentiated carcinomas, etc.

2. Although the treatment rate of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is difficult to determine, it does not mean that nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients are sentenced to death. Clinically, there are many cases of long-term survival after treatment. Whether nasopharyngeal carcinoma can be cured depends mainly on the patient's treatment and physical function. The 5-year survival rate of advanced patients is only 8%~10%.

3. Whether nasopharyngeal carcinoma can be cured depends on whether appropriate treatment methods are adopted. The treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma mainly adopts radiotherapy, and the 5-year survival rate after early treatment is over 70%. Traditional radiotherapy has a damaging effect on normal cells, and many doctors will recommend the use of traditional Chinese medicine for treatment.

4. To a certain extent, it is related to the patient's physical function. Only with good physical function and strong immunity can one resist the development of cancer and tolerate various drug treatments. Improving immune function and enhancing resistance to tumors are extremely important for nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients, especially those in the middle and late stages of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
