How much does it cost to cure liver cancer in its early stages? Three common treatments for early liver cancer

Patients with early liver cancer will experience obvious loss of appetite. Loss of appetite is the most common symptom of early liver cancer, accounting for about 85% of the population. It is generally caused by organic diseases of the liver, with symptoms such as unwillingness to eat and a significant decrease in food intake. In addition, early symptoms of liver cancer include fatigue, not very obvious pain in the liver area, and jaundice. So how much does it cost to cure early liver cancer?

The cost of early-stage liver cancer treatment actually varies from person to person. Some people go to different hospitals and the treatment costs are also different. For example, for patients in small hospitals, the prices of medication and treatment in the hospital are relatively low. The total treatment cost is about tens of thousands of yuan.

If the patient chooses to stay in a large hospital, the price of treating the disease will be higher. Of course, the hospital's medical equipment is much better than that of a smaller hospital, and they are all more authoritative medical equipment. The most important thing is that the doctors' treatment level is the best.

The cost of treatment in a large hospital is very high due to the above characteristics, ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands, usually not less than 100,000 yuan. After all, cancer is a difficult problem in the medical field. The drugs and treatments used in large hospitals are relatively cutting-edge.

In fact, in addition to considering economic issues, another thing we need to pay attention to in the early treatment of liver cancer is that we must try our best to choose a hospital that is more professional and authoritative in treating liver cancer. If there is no local hospital, we can go to other parts of the country for treatment.

Liver cancer treatment

1. Treatment with Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine is a method used by many liver cancer patients to treat liver cancer. Chinese medicine has a conditioning and health-care effect on liver cancer patients, and early treatment has obvious effects and low costs, such as the Weida four-in-one anti-cancer rehabilitation therapy.

2. Surgical treatment. Different surgical procedures are often determined based on the patient's general condition, degree of liver cirrhosis, location and size of the tumor, such as segmental liver resection, partial liver resection, lobectomy, hemihepatectomy, trisegmental liver resection, etc. However, surgical treatment has high risks, high costs, obvious side effects, and great limitations.

3. Liver transplantation. Liver transplantation is a relatively effective method for treating liver cancer, but it has serious limitations. First, there is a shortage of liver sources. Second, the operation is risky and has serious side effects. It requires lifelong medication maintenance and is prone to immune rejection. There is also ethical pressure, so its use is very limited.

IV. Interventional therapy. Interventional therapy for liver cancer refers to a type of regional chemotherapy in which anticancer drugs or embolic agents are injected into the hepatic artery via femoral artery catheterization. Interventional therapy has a certain effect, but it is not satisfactory for patients with large tumor masses, and it still damages normal liver cells. A few patients even develop liver dysfunction.

All patients with early liver cancer should also pay attention to preventing the metastasis of cancer. Cancer metastasis means that the disease has entered the middle and late stages. Cancer metastasis is generally considered the main reason for the high cancer mortality rate, and liver cancer is no exception. Liver cancer can spread to multiple places, and the most common metastatic sites are lymph nodes, lungs, and bones. When it metastasizes to different tissues and organs, different symptoms will appear. Therefore, the use of traditional Chinese medicine to prevent and treat metastasis is currently a common and effective means.
