Endoscopic treatment Endoscopic treatment of gastric cancer is only suitable for some patients. If the disease cannot be removed in the early stage due to systemic diseases, endoscopic treatment can be used.
2. Radiotherapy <br/>Gastric cancer patients can prolong their survival time by choosing radiotherapy during their illness, and it is also a good treatment for gastric cancer.
3. Surgical treatment <br/>Surgical treatment is currently the preferred treatment for gastric cancer. The main surgical methods include radical resection and palliative resection, shunt surgery for the treatment of advanced gastric cancer combined with pyloric obstruction, etc.
4. Biological therapy <br/>Biological therapy mainly involves adding immune enhancers to the patient's body. The purpose of this treatment method is to improve the patient's immunity to cancer and prolong the patient's life.
