The mesothelioma is still lethal, because most cases are diagnosed in advanced stages, and doctors have little to offer consolation, until then. More doctors try their best to give to patients with severe pain with the treatment of mesothelioma.
Surgery Before you consider the surgery as one of the proposals for the treatment of cancer, the health status of the patient should be carefully considered. The tests are to check whether the cancer only to other parts of the body or not. Also, the assessment of the patients heart and lung diseases functions. In the case of the former, a mesothelioma operation can not be performed. As long as the heart and lungs must correct the operating status of the surgery.
The operation is divided into two types: the aggressive surgery (long-term) and palliative procedures (treatment of the symptoms). Let's define separately.
Aggressive Surgery Aggressive surgery involves removing the lung, pleura, diaphragm and pericardium through a process known as extra pneumonectomie fibrosis. The intention of this method is that the physical destruction of the tumor as much as possible. It is an open method bold with the disease, in which the name "aggressive surgery." This process is extremely complex and involves a high degree of risk. This is due to the fact that it is possible chances of death by the even within a month. Extra pneumonectomie fibrosis is a rule with the younger patients who are healthy and are able to allow the surgery.
Procedures palliatifs Palliatifs procedures are usually carried out when the cancer is in its extended form. These procedures are the symptoms of mesothelioma than cure. Pleurectomy (also décortications) is the process of the pleura surgically removed. This method allows for a reduction of pain, the cancer cell mass, and can also prevent the repetition of pleural effusion (fluid on the collection, the enormous difficulty breathing). For patients with mesothelioma grown, complete surgical removal of the entire tumor is not possible. In this case, the surgery will extenuate the symptoms, such as abdominal dropsy,
Chemotherapy
The chemotherapy is the way in which medicines are used to treat mesothelioma. It was found that this method is partly succeeded. That is because the patient has recovered partially after the use of drugs or a combination of drugs (Indeed, the effectiveness of this method is increased, if the combination of drugs in the same period.) Some of these combinations as ensuring effective and new medicines are developed for the treatment of cancer.
Radiation Therapy In this method, the tumor is killed with doses of radiation. But with the help of these methods to kill the tumor cells is very difficult. This is due to the fact that it is difficult to precisely locate malignant cells. The heart, lungs and other organs, the same can be surrounded, and they are in danger from the damaged dose of radiation. However, low doses of radiation can be used to the disease to a certain degree.
Dual Therapy Both chemotherapy and radiation therapy, in combination after the surgery. They both help to kill the remaining tumor cells, which are not removed by surgery and can also help the symptoms of the disease, such as pain in the chest.
The methods for the treatment, the above described are directly means a person with mesothelioma. But the doctors and researchers are always looking for new ways of dealing with mesothelioma. The need for the development of other resources for the treatment of patients with mesothelioma occurs due to the complexity of the different types of cancer, and because the patients react differently to different types of medical treatment. Some of them are as follows:
Immunoagumentive Therapy (IAT) IAT The goal is to strengthen the body's own immune system. The same as the ingredients found four proteins in the blood.
Intraoperative Photodynamic Therapy (IPT) This type of treatment is used for the maintenance of mesothelioma early in the chest. IPT drugs are specialty and light to kill cancer cells during an operation. A medicine that the tumor cells respond to light is injected into a vein several days before surgery. In the surgery, a special edition of light used to the cancer.
Gene It is a unique method by which researchers try to either the ability of the body to fight against natural diseases or alternatively the cancer cells respond to other types of therapy.
