What are the treatments for lung cancer? 5 most effective treatments for lung cancer

The incidence of lung cancer has always been relatively high, especially for smokers. Smoking can cause great harm to the lungs, and long-term smoking may cause lung cancer. If you have lung cancer, you should seek treatment as soon as possible to avoid the disease entering the late stage. Here are some treatments for lung cancer.

1. Sleeve lobectomy in surgical treatment of lung cancer: Sleeve lobectomy is mostly suitable for patients whose tumors are located in the lobar bronchus and involve the lobar bronchial openings.

2. Lobectomy: For isolated peripheral lung cancer, limited to one lobe without obvious lymph node enlargement, lobectomy can be performed. If the tumor involves two lobes or the middle bronchus, upper middle lobe or lower middle lobe lung resection can be performed.

3. Carina resection and reconstruction: When the tumor exceeds the main bronchus and involves the carina or the side wall of the trachea but does not exceed 2CM, carina resection and reconstruction or sleeve pneumonectomy can be performed, and efforts should be made to preserve one lobe of the lung during the operation.

4. Local resection: Local resection is suitable for patients with very small primary cancer, elderly and weak patients with poor lung function, or patients with well-differentiated cancer and low malignancy. Wedge-shaped cancer block resection and lung segment resection are performed.

5. Immunotherapy: For patients who cannot undergo surgery immediately, chemotherapy and biological immunotherapy can be used to shrink the tumor to achieve the purpose of reducing the stage, and then seize the opportunity for radical resection. Or radiotherapy can be used as the main treatment, and biological immunotherapy can be used as an auxiliary treatment, which has significant therapeutic effects.
