Teratomas are best treated surgically. Teratomas originate from potentially multifunctional primitive embryonic cells and are mostly benign, but the tendency to be malignant increases with age. The site of occurrence is related to the midline anterior axis or midline paracentral area of the embryological body cavity, and is more common in the sacral and coccygeal region, mediastinum, retroperitoneum, and gonadal region. It is more common in newborns and infants, and more common in women. So, how should we arrange the rational use of drugs for teratomas in daily life? The treatment principle of malignant teratoma is combined adjuvant therapy, and cisplatin, vinblastine or vincristine, and bleomycin are commonly used. In recent years, it is recommended to use cisplatin, doxorubicin, ifosfamide and other chemotherapy drugs for combined chemotherapy. Radiotherapy is only used for cases of malignant teratoma with clear microscopic or macroscopic residues. The radiotherapy dose should be appropriate. It can be applied to those with macroscopic residues. For those with complete surgical resection, chemotherapy is advocated as the main treatment in recent years, and radiotherapy is used with caution to avoid delayed damage to reproductive organs and bone development during radiotherapy. |
