On the morning of March 12, 2014, when we were busy, Chen XX appeared at the door of the intervention room in casual clothes, this time she was full of spring, and she was holding a banner with both hands, as soon as she saw Director Zhang Xiaofeng, she said excitedly: “Director, I am well, thank you so much, thank you also to the nurse sister, you made me feel the warmth of spring, I feel that I am alive now and can start a normal life again. I don’t know how to thank you, so I made this banner, and I have to tell all my friends around me that the maternity hospital saved me, and it was Director Zhang who gave me hope for life!” Zhang Xiaofeng, Department of Radiology, Beijing Maternity Hospital When it comes to cancer, most people feel that it is a terminal disease, and those who have it feel that every day is a cold winter, a foggy weather with no sunshine. 36-year-old Chen XX was diagnosed with “cervical squamous cell carcinoma stage IIa2 (exophytic type)” in early December 2013 due to irregular vaginal bleeding. The cervical cauliflower-like mass was 8 cm in diameter, which was difficult to operate because of the potential invasion of parametrial tissues, and the risk of recurrence was high with direct excision. After seeing the patient, Director Wu Yumei of the Department of Gynecologic Oncology decided to start with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and embolization via arterial intervention before elective surgery to remove the diseased uterus. After consulting with Deputy Director Zhang Xiaofeng of the Department of Radiology, a treatment plan of chemotherapy and embolization via uterine arteries was formulated according to her condition. Because she knew very little about interventional treatment, Chen XX was very nervous and anemic. When she came to our department, she was pale and had a face of anxiety and anxiety. She kept asking, “Does it hurt?”, “Do you need anesthesia?” She kept asking, “Does it hurt?”, “How is it working?” She kept asking: “Does it hurt?”, “Do you need anesthesia?”, “How is the result?”, “No, I will give you local anesthesia. Director Zhang is very experienced in interventional treatment, and many patients have very good results afterwards, so don’t worry.” Nurse Fan Xiaofen smiled and answered patiently. The gentle voice and smile made the patient slowly relax, and the blood pressure and heart rate gradually returned to the normal range. While methodically performing the procedure, Director Zhang gently asked Chen XX: “The arterial sheath is in place, did the puncture hurt just now?” The catheter was inserted through the arterial sheath while Director Zhang said, “The catheter was in his hand as if it had eyes, and it quickly entered the spiral uterine artery with anatomical features, “It hurts a little to administer chemotherapy drugs, how do you feel?” The chemotherapy drug was slowly injected into the tumor supply arteries through the catheter, and then these supply arteries were carefully embolized, and the operation was successfully completed. Director Zhang took great pains to explain: “There is a tube at the root of your thigh, don’t overflex your leg when you return to the ward, don’t let the arterial sheath come out, I will go to the ward to pull out the tube for you later.” Looking at Director Zhang taking off the isolation coat and 20 pounds of lead protective clothing, the green brush hand coat had been completely soaked with sweat, Chen XX said from the bottom of his heart: “Thank you! Director Zhang has worked hard!” . Once a week, after three arterial interventions, colposcopic examination: the diameter of the cervix was significantly reduced to only 3cm in diameter, which was close to normal, and the operation could be performed. on January 22, 2014, the gynecologic oncology department performed a hysterectomy on Chen XX under general anesthesia, and the operation went smoothly. What was even more surprising was that the postoperative pathology returned that the cervical cancer foci and tumor cells were completely gone! Arterial interventional neo-adjuvant chemotherapy and embolization has added a new characteristic treatment for cervical cancer patients. It is proved that when arterial interventional chemotherapy is injected into the tumor blood supply artery through catheter, the chemotherapy drug is evenly distributed in the downstream tissues with blood flow, and the tumor tissues are “immersed” in the constant concentration of chemotherapy drug, and the high concentration of chemotherapy drug can This can significantly increase the intensity of local dose of chemotherapeutic drugs and improve the efficacy of tumor chemotherapy; at the same time, combined with the embolization of tumor blood supply artery, it can block its nutrition and “starve” the tumor, which has remarkable effect. It is like the sunshine that penetrates through the haze and brings hope of spring for patients.
