The lowest cost of treating gastric cancer

What is the lowest cost of treating gastric cancer? The cost of treating advanced gastric cancer is a question that many patients are very concerned about. The occurrence of gastric cancer has a great impact on our normal life. With the acceleration of people's pace of life, the increase of life pressure, and the increase of bad eating habits, the probability of suffering from gastric cancer is also increasing. Gastric cancer not only brings great pain to the patient's body, but also is a burden on the family economy. So how much is the cost of treating advanced gastric cancer?

Many people do not know much about gastric cancer. The early symptoms of gastric cancer are not obvious and are not easy to be noticed by people. As a result, many patients are already in the late stage when diagnosed. How much does it cost to treat gastric cancer in the late stage? According to Yuan Xifu, a famous tumor seller, the cost of treating gastric cancer in the late stage varies greatly depending on the treatment method of the patient. At present, the treatment of gastric cancer in the late stage mainly includes Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine. The cost of Western medicine treatment ranges from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands or millions, while the cost of traditional Chinese medicine treatment is only a few thousand yuan a month.

How much does it cost to treat advanced gastric cancer? The treatment method determines the cost of treatment. Currently, there are mainly the following treatment methods for advanced gastric cancer.

1. Surgical treatment: The treatment effect depends on the stage of gastric cancer, the depth of invasion and the spread of the tumor. For early gastric cancer, partial gastrectomy is generally performed. If there is local lymph node metastasis, it should be cleared at the same time. For patients in the advanced stage, if there is no distant metastasis, surgical resection should be performed as much as possible, and the cost generally ranges from 20,000 to 30,000 yuan.

2. Chemotherapy: Patients with early-stage gastric cancer without any metastatic lesions generally do not need chemotherapy after surgery. Early-stage gastric cancer with metastatic lymph node cancer and all advanced gastric cancers require chemotherapy. The cost of chemotherapy ranges from 1,000 to tens of thousands per time, mainly depending on the chemotherapy regimen used.

3. Radiotherapy: Gastric cancer has low radiosensitivity. It cannot be cured by radiotherapy alone, and its role is mainly auxiliary or palliative. The main forms of radiotherapy for gastric cancer are: preoperative radiotherapy, intraoperative radiotherapy, postoperative radiotherapy and palliative radiotherapy. Although the effect is good, its side effects are also very obvious, causing multiple harms to patients. The cost depends on the specific situation.

4. Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment: Traditional Chinese Medicine treatment for advanced gastric cancer adopts oral and topical treatment. Multiple treatment methods work in a three-dimensional coordinated manner to quickly open up the meridians and internal organs, and quickly control the "swelling", "pain" and "water" caused by malignant tumors, and curb the progress of malignant tumors. The rehabilitation period focuses on syndrome differentiation and root cause treatment. Effective rehabilitation plans are formulated mainly based on the etiology and pathogenesis of the tumor. The triple balance therapy of traditional Chinese medicine focuses on root cause treatment. The recurrence rate of malignant tumors is very high, so the consolidation period is a very important stage of treatment. Regular consolidation and improvement of the immune function of the recovered patients, strengthening the patient's physique and consolidation can effectively prevent the recurrence of the disease and improve the patient's quality of life. The treatment cost is about 3,000 yuan per month.
