Is the cure rate of nasopharyngeal carcinoma high? What are the cure methods?

Is nasopharyngeal carcinoma highly treatable? What are the cures?

1. The age of onset of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is younger than other cancers, usually 30-50 years old. There are more males than females, with a male-to-female ratio of 3:1. The 5-year survival rate of advanced patients is only 8% to 10%.

2. As for the treatment rate of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, there is no exact figure at present. However, the treatment rate of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is difficult to determine, but it does not mean a death sentence for nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients. The use of advanced medical technology has also witnessed that many patients can survive for a long time after treatment, so patients do not need to die and try to win the right to life for themselves.

3. Clinically, the early treatment of NPC mainly includes radiotherapy, chemotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine and immunotherapy. Among them, radiotherapy is considered the first choice for NPC. NPC is sensitive to radiation. Radiotherapy is used to kill tumor cells, but normal tissues or organ cells will inevitably have radiation reactions.

4. During the active radiotherapy process, patients should also pay attention to reasonable diet conditioning to improve their disease resistance.

The specific survival period of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients depends on the patient's own physical condition and the choice of treatment. As long as the correct treatment method is selected according to the symptoms, the patient's survival period can be maximized.
