What should I do if testicular cancer recurs after treatment

Testicular cancer is a bolt from the blue for patients. Some families will lose their happy lives because the man has testicular cancer. In fact, testicular cancer is treatable, but after treatment, some patients suffer a recurrence of testicular cancer due to various reasons. So what should we do if testicular cancer recurs? The following are specific methods.

Currently, the main treatments for testicular cancer include surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. However, these treatments have major drawbacks. Early testicular cancer is prone to recurrence after surgery, and late testicular cancer has strong side effects due to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Patients have weak physical functions and cannot tolerate repeated radiotherapy and chemotherapy. In order to make up for these drawbacks, medical scientists have developed biological immunotherapy to solve these problems.

Biological immunotherapy can expand the effects of cellular and antibody immune responses through immune-active cells, enhance the patient's lethality and sensitivity to cancer cells, and achieve the purpose of treating cancer. Entering the 21st century, the development of immunology has made more and more people aware of the important role of the immune system in tumor treatment. The use of biological immunotherapy technology to treat cancer, prevent postoperative recurrence and metastasis of cancer patients, and improve the efficacy of advanced patients has achieved remarkable results in clinical practice.

The recurrence rate of early testicular cancer after surgical treatment is very high, which makes early treatment almost useless for many patients, and patients endure the pain of repeated treatments. Although postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy can prevent the recurrence and metastasis of cancer to a certain extent, it is still dangerous.

It is recommended that postoperative combination of biological immunotherapy is the best method, which can kill remaining cancer cells, eliminate factors of recurrence and metastasis, increase the possibility of cure, prolong survival time, and improve quality of life. Biological immunotherapy can also be combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy for patients with advanced testicular cancer to enhance the patient's sensitivity to radiotherapy and chemotherapy and eliminate the side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy.
