Basic knowledge of liver cancer

Liver cancer outlined
Liver cancer is the tumor in the liver, the primary and secondary points. Liver cancer in Chinese medicine in the "accumulation", "Zhengjia," "jaundice" and "expansion", "Xie Tong" and other areas.
Liver cancer is one of our common malignancy, the average age of 44-year-old sick. A high degree of malignant liver disease, have developed rapidly, if not treated promptly or improper treatment options, the average survival time for six months.
1, primary liver cancer: a liver cells or epithelial cells of the intrahepatic bile duct cancer. Like patients with cirrhosis easy to primary liver cancer.
2, secondary liver cancer: the other organs of the body is transferred to liver cancer and secondary liver cancer formation. Most of the cancer, colorectal cancer caused by the transfer. A small number of bile duct cancer and pancreatic cancer from the liver caused by the transfer.
With misprision of liver cancer onset, the incubation period is long, high grade, progress faster, stronger invasive and easy to transfer characteristics of poor prognosis. Its incidence is increasing year by year trend. So early discovery, early diagnosis and early treatment is to reduce the suffering of patients with liver cancer a big help. At present, only palm prints diagnosis can achieve this level.
Surgical treatment of liver cancer
Surgery in the treatment of liver cancer still accounts for the leading position. In recent years, new theories, new technology and new concepts on the basis of liver cancer surgery have a lot of progress. In the past a single large liver cancer on the basis of removal has emerged can significantly improve the efficacy of small hepatocellular carcinoma removed, could significantly prolong survival after resection of sub-clinical stage of the recurrence of further removal, and some can not be removed to provide a way out of liver cancer "Excision of liver cancer can not be reduced after removal."
Since the origin of many features of liver cancer, therefore, when the surgical resection larger lesions, the liver will still have some small lesions, with the former doing imaging examination, these tiny lesions may not be found. As the body after surgery the patient's resistance to drop, these small lesions will be rapid development, so the treatment of liver cancer after it is extremely important.
Following are the patients not to liver transplant operation: the existence of the liver difficult to cure the cancer; exist difficult to control the infection (including bacteria, fungi, virus infection); suffering from serious heart, lung, brain, kidneys and other organs is important Qualitative diseases; are difficult to control, such as mental illness or psychopathic.
Liver cancer radiation therapy
Because of radioactive sources, radiation equipment and technological progress, all kinds of imaging examination of the exact location so that radiation therapy in the treatment of liver cancer status has improved, the effects have improved. Suitable for cancer radiation therapy is still limited unresectable liver cancer, is usually tolerated, if larger doses, its effects are better, radiation therapy, radiation through the entire liver, partial radiation, all of the liver mobile radiation, local hyperfractionated radiation, three-dimensional Radiation total over the past useful proton radiation treatment for liver cancer. It is reported radiation total quantities exceeding 40 Gy (4000rads capacity gas) combined traditional Chinese medicine to Qi Jianpi year survival rate of 72.7 percent, five-year survival rate of 10%, with surgery and chemotherapy treatment would have to kill residual cancer, chemotherapy Radiotherapy also from the sensitizing effect. Hepatic artery injection of Y-90 microspheres, 131 I-iodized oil, or isotopes, such as monoclonal antibodies labeled with radiation therapy can play a role.
Liver cancer chemotherapy
Is generally believed that a single intravenous drug less effective. And the use of hepatic artery administration (or) embolization, and to meet internal and external radiation therapy more applications, the effect more pronounced. For some of the indications of advanced liver cancer without surgery, and the portal vein tumor thrombus hepatic artery blockage should not be involved in treatment and palliative surgery after some patients may be combined or sequential chemotherapy.
In Germany, advanced liver cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, medication is only the domestic 1 / 3, a single drug varieties. In China, doctors and patients to the maximum extent possible in order to kill cancer cells, the drug on the stand for "large doses" and "variety."
Two different ideas of the results are different: Germany in patients with advanced liver cancer after diagnosis, the average year survival rate was 70 percent more than two years, the survival rate of 50 percent or more. In China, the vast majority of advanced liver cancer patients from diagnosis to death is generally not more than six months. "Heavyweight" treatment for many patients the remaining normal liver function impairment, decreased immunity and ultimately died because of liver failure. However, in the one-sided pursuit of killing cancer cells under the guiding ideology, even if the patient nausea and vomiting, high fever abdominal pain, the two sides agreed that a normal patient. Guangzhou, a major hospital had more than 100 liver cancer patients had died track and found that over 40% of the patients died of liver function decline, rather than the true sense of "liver cancer."
Chinese medicine treatment of liver cancer
Liver cancer as a malignant tumor of the first, its lethality, the death rate remains high. China's theory of Chinese medicine based on solid, broad use, as long as the dialectical rational drug use, there are good results. The main problems:
First, to maximize the protection of liver function
The liver is the largest human digestive gland, the task is arduous, and participation in the body of digestion and metabolism, absorption and utilization activities. Once the abnormal liver function will appear glucose metabolism, protein metabolism, fat and a series of radio and other disorders. Most liver cancer patients have died due to liver failure or abnormal liver function leading to portal hypertension caused by gastrointestinal bleeding. Chinese medicine treatment in the dialectic on the basis of maximum protection to resume the liver, focusing on the tumor and not focus on the improvement of symptoms. Symptoms improved, and stable or shrinking the tumor.
Second, the greatest extent possible to reduce complications
Most liver cancer patients Hypersplenism liver cancer patients is the most serious complications, it can cause abnormal hematopoietic system, coagulation dysfunction, coupled with portal hypertension, resulting in a high degree of gastric varicose veins, easily cause gastrointestinal bleeding. Abnormal liver function there will be less than protein synthesis, a low-protein, caused massive ascites. Tumor suppression excretion of bile there will be obstacles, such as cause jaundice. The use of Chinese medicine Spleen Qi, Xiao derivative, Ruanjiansanjie, and other characteristics of the treatment can reach the AFP declined, normal liver function and increase phagocytes, T-cell, the effect of tumor necrosis factor, and promote the increase in patient volume diet, eliminating Ascites, Quchu jaundice, the continued control of tumor growth.
Third, the greatest scope to improve the quality of life of patients and quality of life
Cancer now is still the world's disease. A regular hospital doctors, who would dare said no cure, but for liver cancer incidence part of the rich blood supply, double sets of blood supply, transfer fast, rapid growth of the characteristics of Chinese medicine from the external symptoms of focus, to take "encircling the cities from rural areas" Strategic thinking, lifting the number of patients from the original primary symptoms. Through Chinese medicine treatment of patients generally do not pain, ascites disappeared and liver function to normal, jaundice dissipated, to "zone of survival" purposes. Survival in the original three to six months, patients can be extended to 1 to 3 years, or even longer, and patients can take care of themselves, to participate in some sports.
Because 80 percent of liver cancer cases diagnosed at the already advanced, the use of surgery for removal rate is very low, chemotherapy, radiation therapy has the effect unsatisfactory, so, Chinese medicine therapy in the treatment of liver cancer occupies a certain position.

Green non-toxic therapies improve survival rates of liver cancer
Surgery is the primary means of treatment of liver cancer, liver cancer of the small five-year survival rate of 60-70%, while the 5-year survival rate of liver cancer less than 20%.
And Chinese medicine in the treatment of liver cancer, may play an important role. But blindly advanced liver cancer patients, a large number of "Yidugongdu", "promoting blood circulation Huayu" of Chinese medicine, can lead to illness or even add to the deterioration. Therefore, Chinese medicine treatment in the selection of the time, we should also pay particular attention to whether symptomatic selected drugs.
"Green non-toxic anti-cancer therapy," the advent of liver cancer in the treatment of this subject has made breakthrough progress in five-year survival rate was significantly increased. The outcome of the five governing the treatment of liver cancer has played a full role in the rehabilitation. Such as: soft-kin of the end of the liver tumor can narrow; Qingrejiedu law to remove liver cancer drugs, and the accumulation of long-cancer drugs as soon as possible from in vitro; Yiqi Yangxue law may promote the recovery of the body surgery patients to prevent cancer Transfer and relapse; Shugan Jianpi law to reduce radiotherapy and chemotherapy side effects and increase the radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatment; Fuzhengquxie of advanced patients to reduce the pain and extended survival of patients with the time. Therefore, with no surgery or pancreas, gallbladder, and other transfer or post-operative patients, as much as possible as soon as possible the "green non-toxic anti-cancer therapy" treatment, some patients as long as the 1-2 course of treatment, symptoms will be obvious pain Mitigation, the mass will also narrow, ascites disappeared. Clinical data show that the "green non-toxic anti-cancer therapy" after treatment, liver cancer survival rate increased significantly.
