How to treat liver metastasis of thyroid cancer

When thyroid cancer metastasizes to the liver, it usually indicates that it is in the advanced stage. At this time, the patient can be treated with surgery, radioactive iodine-131 therapy, targeted drug therapy, etc.

1. Surgical treatment

If the patient's condition is serious and has obvious discomfort symptoms, he or she needs to go to the hospital in time for surgical treatment, such as radical resection, so as to achieve the purpose of improving the disease.

2. Radioactive iodine-131 therapy

Radioactive iodine-131 therapy uses radiation to destroy thyroid tissue and inhibit the secretion of thyroid hormones, thereby shrinking the thyroid gland and reducing the impact on surrounding organs. It can also be used to treat hyperthyroidism, thyroid cancer, and other conditions.

Targeted drug therapy

Targeted drugs are drugs designed for the unique gene or protein structure of tumor cells, which can kill tumor cells. In the case of liver metastasis of thyroid cancer, drugs such as apatinib mesylate tablets and gefitinib tablets can also be used for treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

In addition, you should also pay attention to your daily diet and try to eat light food. It is not recommended to eat spicy food, or raw, cold or cool food. At the same time, you should go to the hospital for regular checkups and pay attention to your body's recovery at any time. If you feel any other discomfort during this period, you should seek medical attention in time.
