Liver cancer is one of the common diseases of digestive system, which is difficult to be detected in early stage. Its development is closely related to post-hepatitis cirrhosis, alcoholic cirrhosis, and of course, there are many unexplained ones. It can be divided into: 1. early stage; 2. middle stage; 3. late stage. Early stage is usually asymptomatic, and most of them are found by chance when examining the body. In the middle stage, there are already discomfort symptoms such as abdominal pain and bloating. In order to help patients find the suitable treatment method faster, I am here to tell you a method in layman’s language. The conventional treatment methods for liver cancer are divided into: 1) surgical resection; 2) hepatic artery chemoembolization; 3) radiofrequency treatment; 4) traditional Chinese medicine treatment. The vast majority of people choose the above 4 methods of treatment. When to see the surgeon? Those who meet the following conditions: 1, single lesion less than 5cm; 2, age less than 60 years; 3, no severe cirrhosis and good liver function. Surgical resection is more likely. The first choice is surgical resection. When to see an interventional doctor? 1, single lesion greater than 5cm or multiple lesions, lesions less than 5cm but sites growing in adjacent large blood vessels, or more severe cirrhosis, or for other reasons surgical resection is more risky. 2, older, or have underlying disease, liver function is not good, but no jaundice, ascites, extreme wasting. When to do radiofrequency treatment? The principle of radiofrequency therapy can be understood as the use of thermal effect, through the needle inserted into the human tumor to cause necrosis and vaporization of the tumor tissue to achieve the purpose of treating the tumor. It is more suitable for small lesions, single lesion less than 3-4cm in diameter or less than 3cm 3 lesions or less. Chinese herbal medicine is not suitable for patients who are not suitable for all the above methods of treatment in late stage. Patients with large amount of ascites or with jaundice, poor general condition, unable to tolerate formal treatment, unable to accept the side effects of chemotherapy drugs, and poor physical condition. Such patients are treated with TCM herbal medicine for the purpose of pain relief and life extension.
