What are the folk remedies for treating hamartoma

Life gives us many things, both good and bad. Sometimes there are diseases. As a type of disease, hamartoma is actually benign in many cases. However, some people always try all kinds of medical treatments. So, what are the folk remedies for hamartoma treatment? Let's take a look below.

Hamartoma, most scholars have always believed that hamartoma is not a true tumor, but an incorrect combination and arrangement of normal tissues in organs. This disordered change in the number, structure or maturity of organ tissues will grow slowly with the development of the human body and rarely become malignant. Hamartoma has complex components, most of which are tumor-like deformities formed by abnormal development of normal tissues, and a few are mesenchymal tumors. So, is there a folk remedy for treating hamartoma?

There are many types of hamartomas, generally including: pulmonary hamartoma, renal hamartoma, hepatic hamartoma, hypothalamic hamartoma, and breast hamartoma. Males are more likely to be affected than females, and most of them are elderly people. The age of onset is generally between 30 and 60 years old. Among them, the proportion of patients with renal hamartoma is relatively large. We will take renal hamartoma as an example and briefly introduce its regular treatment methods.

Standard treatments for renal hamartoma include:

1. Follow-up: Tumors smaller than four centimeters may not require treatment, but close follow-up is required.

2. Arterial embolization should be considered first in cases of bleeding. According to experience, the volume of the tumor does not decrease after embolization, but the bleeding can be stopped. Superselective renal artery branch embolization is often used to protect some renal function.

3. Nephron-sparing surgery: Tumors smaller than five centimeters can be enucleated, especially tumors at the edge of the kidney.

4. Nephrectomy: Giant renal hamartoma can be treated with nephrectomy; if it is a bilateral lesion, more consideration should be given to the preservation of renal function. In a few cases, there may be local and lymph node invasion, or even tumor thrombus invasion of large veins, showing malignant behavior, and radical nephrectomy should be performed.

5. Kidney transplantation or hemodialysis is only suitable for patients who must undergo bilateral nephrectomy due to bilateral lesions leading to renal failure or tumor rupture and bleeding.

Among the treatment methods we usually use above, there is no such thing as folk prescriptions, so don’t try random treatments when you are sick. You still have to seek the correct method to treat hamartoma and go to a regular hospital for examination, diagnosis and treatment.
