Surgical treatment of ovarian cancer How to treat advanced ovarian cancer

Ovarian cancer is a malignant tumor that women may suffer from, and the mortality rate among women is relatively high. Therefore, when you have ovarian cancer, you need to undergo surgery for treatment. For early ovarian cancer, patients need staged surgical resection. For advanced ovarian cancer, patients need adjuvant chemotherapy, radiotherapy and other treatments in addition to surgical treatment.

Ovarian cancer is related to genetics and endocrine disorders, which can cause patients to experience symptoms such as pain, weight loss, and abdominal effusion, which can seriously damage the patient's health. Therefore, surgical treatment of ovarian cancer is very necessary. Let's take a closer look at the surgical treatment of ovarian cancer.
1. Surgical treatment of early ovarian cancer <br/>For early ovarian cancer, staged surgery can be used at this time. Surgical treatment can remove the patient's cancerous tissue and conduct a comprehensive surgical pathology analysis. At this time, open laparotomy and staged surgery can also be performed. Because it is in the early stage, the tumor can be completely removed through the vagina. At this time, it can also be treated with conservative surgery.
Conservative surgery is to ensure that the patient can give birth again. At this time, the patient's uterus and corresponding appendages need to be preserved. The second resection surgery will be performed after giving birth.
2. Surgical treatment of advanced ovarian cancer <br/>For the surgical treatment of advanced ovarian cancer, in addition to surgical treatment, auxiliary treatments such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and traditional Chinese medicine are also needed. Before chemotherapy, it is necessary to perform laparotomy and tumor cell reduction surgery. All the parts that have metastasized should be removed as much as possible. This can improve the effect of chemotherapy and increase the patient's life expectancy. After recovery, a second cytoreductive surgery is required, which can effectively kill cancer cells that were not completely removed in the first surgery. However, when performing the second surgical treatment, the patient's physical condition needs to be checked, and the second surgery can only be performed after it is determined to be suitable for surgery.
When you have ovarian cancer, whether it is in the early or late stages, surgical treatment is necessary. This can prolong the patient's life. While undergoing surgical treatment, patients also need to pay attention to rest and maintain a good attitude to fight the disease.
