Perfusion chemotherapy belongs to a kind of local chemotherapy, which is mainly used for treating complications such as pleural effusion and abdominal effusion caused by malignant tumors, and it can also inhibit the growth of tumors.
Perfusion chemotherapy refers to the elimination of cancer cells in the patient’s body by means of local infusion of chemotherapy drugs. If patients with malignant tumors have symptoms such as pleural effusion and abdominal effusion, chemotherapy drugs such as bleomycin and cisplatin can be injected into the chest cavity and abdominal cavity through perfusion chemotherapy, so that the chemotherapy drugs can circulate in the body and achieve the effect of destroying the cancer cells and promoting the recovery of the condition.
If pleural effusion causes discomfort such as dyspnea, chest tightness and shortness of breath, patients can follow the doctor’s instruction to reduce the pleural effusion through chemotherapy infusion, improve the clinical discomfort and inhibit the growth of tumor.
Some patients may experience symptoms such as frequent urination, nausea and vomiting, and decreased immunity after chemotherapy infusion. Therefore, it is recommended that patients consult their doctors in the hospital to determine whether perfusion chemotherapy is necessary according to their actual conditions.
Please strictly follow the doctor’s instructions for drug treatment and do not use drugs on your own.
