Is chemotherapy useful for gastric signet ring cell carcinoma? It has a certain effect

Gastric signet ring cell carcinoma has more mucus in its cells, and the early prognosis of the tumor is generally better than other types, and its early lymph node metastasis is less. Gastric signet ring cell carcinoma is a malignant tumor among gastric cancers, with rapid progression and high malignancy. For those patients who have been diagnosed with advanced gastric signet ring cell carcinoma, radiotherapy and chemotherapy can be used. Early gastric cancer usually has no obvious symptoms, only upper abdominal pain, nausea and other symptoms.

In real life, everyone is familiar with cancer. When it comes to cancer, everyone will feel particularly scared, and the incidence of cancer is relatively high. Most people should know about the treatment of cancer. The common treatment method is to let the patient undergo chemotherapy. There are many types of cancer, and gastric signet ring cell carcinoma is also a type of cancer. Let's talk about whether chemotherapy is useful for gastric signet ring cell carcinoma?
Gastric signet ring cell carcinoma is a relatively common pathology, and it is also a relatively common disease in real life. The cells of gastric signet ring cell carcinoma have relatively more mucus, which squeezes the cell nucleus to one side, but it can be seen under a microscope. This type of tumor is generally better in the early stages because early lymph node metastasis is relatively rare. However, the treatment effect in the middle and late stages is relatively poor compared to non-signet ring cell tumors. Patients who cannot undergo surgery in the late stages must be treated with chemotherapy. So far, there has been no obvious therapeutic effect on chemotherapy for signet ring cell carcinoma.
In pathology, gastric signet ring cell carcinoma is a malignant tumor, accounting for a certain proportion of gastric cancer, and is also highly invasive. The disease progresses very quickly. Signet ring cell carcinoma contains a lot of mucus cells, and the cells are full of mucus, which squeezes the cells to the other side. From the appearance alone, it looks like a ring. For patients with gastric signet ring cell carcinoma, it can generally be treated with surgery, but it must be treated and diagnosed as early as possible.
Patients with obstruction and perforation can also be treated surgically. If patients have been diagnosed with advanced gastric signet ring cell carcinoma, radiotherapy or chemotherapy can be used to help patients with treatment. For example, drugs such as paclitaxel, oxaliplatin, and Xeloda also have certain effects. Gastric signet ring cell carcinoma is highly aggressive and is a malignant tumor.
Signet ring cell carcinoma is a type of gastric cancer, and its malignancy is also relatively high. The symptoms of the tumor have nothing to do with the pathological classification, but are mainly related to the early or late stage of the disease and the location of the tumor. Early gastric cancer generally has no obvious symptoms, manifested as dull pain, discomfort, nausea, etc. in the upper abdomen; as the disease progresses, there are different clinical manifestations according to different locations, including choking when eating and pyloric obstruction, and bleeding can easily lead to anemia; patients in the late stage mainly show cachexia symptoms and metastasis symptoms.
