The traditional main treatment for cervical cancer is extensive removal of the uterine body and cervix, and removal of bilateral ovaries and fallopian tubes, followed by pelvic radiation therapy or radical radiotherapy. Luo Xiping said that since cervical cancer is showing a trend of younger onset, some unmarried and infertile girls have become cervical cancer patients, “The traditional treatment plan is a fatal blow to women’s fertility and maintenance of endocrine function.” Breasts and cervix, the most tender organs of women’s body, are unique physiological structures that often make them the territory of cancer diseases. In recent years, cervical cancer has become the second biggest killer of women after breast cancer. According to authoritative data, there are about 470,000 cases of cervical cancer worldwide and about 130,000 new cases in China every year. All women who have had sex are potentially at risk for cervical cancer “99 percent of cervical cancer cases are caused by high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infection.” According to Luo Xiping, cervical cancer is a disease that is closely related to lifestyle habits and social environment. All women who have had sex are potentially at risk of developing cervical cancer because they may have been infected with HPV. “Previously, cervical cancer was generally more prevalent in middle-aged women in their 40s and 50s, but in the last decade, the age of patients has been decreasing and the youngest patient I have ever seen was 18 years old.” The rejuvenation of cervical cancer is closely related to the current lifestyle changes of some young women, such as premature sex and too many sexual partners. In addition, women who give birth too early, have more than five children and smoke are at higher risk of developing cervical cancer. However, HPV infection is usually transient and most can be cleared spontaneously, with an average duration of eight months. Only persistent high-risk HPV infection usually leads to CIN (cervical epithelial atypical hyperplasia, cervical precancerous lesions) or cervical cancer, according to Luo Xi Ping. “HPV infection develops into CIN in an average of 8-24 months, and then cervical cancer in an average of 8-12 years. Therefore, if HPV infection is blocked, it can play a role in preventing cervical cancer.” ”Cervical cancer is mostly asymptomatic in its early stages and is not significantly different from chronic cervicitis.” If you encounter symptoms such as unusual vaginal discharge (leukorrhea, foul-smelling, yellow, purulent, etc.), vaginal bleeding during non-physiological cycles, post-menopausal bleeding, bleeding or pain during sex, you need to seek prompt medical attention. Regular screening is essential to prevent cervical cancer Although many people talk about cancer, Luo Xiping believes that cervical cancer is not scary and is completely preventable and treatable. ”To prevent cervical cancer, early screening is the key.” There is a period of about 5-15 years from the time of virus infection to the time it evolves into cervical cancer. Due to the long latency period, there is every chance to detect and treat it as early as possible with today’s advanced detection technology. “The main way to control cervical cancer is prevention. The cure rate of cervical cancer is closely related to the early stage of the disease when it is detected, which can reach 90% for stage I cervical cancer, about 60% for stage II and only about 30% for stage III. Early detection and early treatment can reduce the mortality rate.” According to the introduction, primary prevention of cervical cancer can be achieved by advocating late marriage, prohibiting early marriage and sexual disorders, practicing family planning, actively preventing and controlling diseases related to the occurrence of cervical cancer, and regular gynecological checkups, etc. to initially exclude the causative factors and high-risk factors for the development of cervical cancer. HPV vaccination is an important means for women to prevent cervical cancer. But it is a pity that the cervical cancer vaccine has not yet been approved in mainland China, so the number of young women who go abroad or Hong Kong for vaccination is after all a minority. ”In principle, any woman who has had sex for more than three years or has had sex over the age of 21 should be screened for cervical cancer (TCT and HPV). However, because HPV is likely to be naturally cleared by the body and only persistent infection is a high-risk status, at the age of 21-29, cytology screening is generally required as long as it is performed every three years, unless the cytology screening is abnormal before additional HPV testing is required,” according to Luo Xiping, there are currently three screening methods for cervical cancer, Pap smear, TCT and Among them, Pap smear is a traditional cytological test with low cost, which is usually used frequently in large-scale physical examinations, but there are many missed diagnoses. tCT is a liquid-based cytological test with extremely high detection rate and higher cost. hpv molecular diagnosis, which is suitable for close monitoring, is more expensive than liquid-based cytological test. The optimal starting age for cervical cancer screening is 25-30 years old in economically developed large and medium-sized cities and 35-40 years old in less economically developed areas. For high-risk women with multiple sexual partners or frequent unclean sexual practices, the starting age of screening should be advanced accordingly. For women over 65 years of age, if no lesions above CIN2 have appeared in the past 20 years of screening, three consecutive normal cytology tests in the last 10 years, or two consecutive normal cytology combined with HPV screening, and the last screening within the last 5 years, screening can be stopped and rest assured to live a later life. Early cervical cancer patients prefer surgery In the treatment of cervical cancer, Luo Xiping said that surgery can be used as radical treatment for early cervical cancer, and surgical staging for advanced patients, and palliative treatment for patients with recurrence. Radiotherapy, which is applicable to all stages of cervical cancer. “Surgery is favored in the treatment of early cervical cancer for the purpose of protecting ovarian function in young patients.” According to the report, there are two types of treatment for cervical precancerous lesions (CIN). One is destructive treatment, such as microwave, laser, freezing and other physical treatments. The other is excisional treatment, such as CIN1 patients, who have a high possibility of natural regression of lesions (57%) and only 1% may progress to cervical invasive cancer, can choose conservative observation, close follow-up and regular gynecological examination. for CIN2 and CIN3 patients, surgical treatment such as LEEP (cervical conization) and CKC is generally recommended.
