Can glioma be cured by taking medicine

Glioma is the most common intracranial malignant tumor, which originates from glial cells in brain tissue. It is a tumor with very special tumor cell origin, pathological structure, biological characteristics and clinical symptoms. It is difficult to cure and prone to recurrence, so many patients are more concerned about whether glioma can be cured by taking medicine. Xia Min has an editor to answer this question for everyone.

Surgery is still the first choice for treating tumors, and gliomas are also treated with surgery. The risk of glioma surgery is still relatively high, and some patients are more averse to brain surgery and are unwilling to undergo surgical treatment. In fact, gliomas can be treated by other methods without surgery.

Radiotherapy for brain gliomas is an important part of the treatment of gliomas. Most of them are conventional radiotherapy, and the radiation dose of long-distance irradiation is correlated with the efficacy within a certain range. Studies have shown that patients with highly malignant gliomas have a significantly longer median survival when they receive a dose of 60Gy compared with 50Gy, but when the dose is increased to 70Gy, there is no significant difference in survival compared with 50 and 60Gy. Therefore, the radiation dose for glioblastoma patients is limited to 60Gy. Similarly, for low-grade malignant gliomas, it is also believed that the radiation dose should be 55-60Gy.

Chemotherapy for glioma is drug therapy. Most of them are still injected intravenously. Oral drugs will reduce the absorption effect through various metabolisms. There is also the blood-brain barrier. In the treatment of glioma, there are even fewer oral chemotherapy drugs.

Treatment of brain glioma with Chinese medicine, treatment of Chinese medicine, single use for advanced stage that cannot be treated with other treatments, and combined use during other treatments. Although many ancient descriptions have included common symptoms of modern brain tumors. Such as headaches, vomiting, epilepsy, paralysis, etc. Due to historical conditions, traditional Chinese medicine does not have the name of brain tumor, so there is no mature and targeted ancestral prescription, all relying on the current experience accumulation. It can be said that there were treatments for brain glioma in ancient times.
