How to prevent and treat sequelae of brain tumor surgery?

Compared with other diagnosis and treatment measures, the risk of brain tumor resection is higher, and craniotomy is needed, which makes the risk factor of resection sequelae higher and can not be ignored. Sequela of brain tumor refers to the symptoms left after brain tumor surgery. These symptoms are not caused by the existence of brain tumor, because the brain tumor has been removed and cured at this time, and the sequelae are neurological deficit caused by tumor or operation. In the process of surgical resection of tumor, due to the adhesion between tumor tissue and brain tissue or the need of surgical resection, some cranial nerve tissues are often damaged, resulting in some corresponding clinical symptoms. If there are symptoms such as numbness of limbs, language barrier, ineffective exercise and pain. For the tumor that can not be completely removed, the existence of residual tumor will continue to compress local brain tissue and show various discomfort symptoms. Such as headache and dizziness. These are all symptoms left after brain tumor surgery. After a lot of research, it is found that the residual cancer cells after surgery will proliferate compensatively, just like people who have just lost weight and rebounded; With the increase of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the drug resistance of residual cancer cells is getting stronger and stronger, which makes the treatment effect worse and worse. During the intermission of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the remaining cancer cells will take the opportunity to grow explosively, and the rate of division will reach 200 times that of usual. The special growth state of residual cancer cells in these three periods directly led to the high metastasis and recurrence of cancer, which made the patient's painstaking treatment fail. The brain can be divided into multiple regions, and tumors can be benign or malignant. Moreover, there are many differences in the location of the disease, which makes the surgical treatment have many limitations. Some benign brain tumors can be completely cured, and some malignant tumors are more troublesome to treat. Surgery and gamma knife treatment of the head are the main methods. Generally, benign tumors can be cured without recurrence after surgical resection. In addition, some patients have postoperative residues, such as meningioma in sellar region and pituitary adenoma around cavernous sinus, which can not be operated. Postoperative gamma knife treatment of the head is feasible, which can kill and cure the tumor. Therefore, the sequela of brain tumor surgery depends on the severity of the condition. The milder the illness, the better the treatment effect, and there won't be too many sequelae. However, for malignant tumors, the recurrence rate after treatment is different according to their malignant degree. Astrocytomas, like glioblastoma, are highly malignant, and most of them will recur within 1 year after simple surgery, so it is often necessary to cooperate with general radiotherapy or gamma knife treatment after surgery to delay the recurrence time of tumors. The biggest advantage of gamma knife in the treatment of brain tumors is that it can achieve the surgical effect, and there is no surgical trauma, so gamma knife is also called the special force of neurosurgery. Brain tumor surgery requires craniotomy, and many people worry that the sequelae of brain tumor surgery will bring harm to patients. As we all know, the risk of brain surgery is huge, so we should be careful when choosing treatment methods. 1, develop good living habits, quit smoking and limit alcohol. Smoking, the World Health Organization predicts that if people stop smoking, five years later, the number of cancer patients in the world will decrease1/3; Second, don't drink. Alcohol and tobacco are extremely acidic substances, and people who smoke and drink for a long time are prone to acidic constitution. Drinking alcohol is one of the risk factors for cancer, accounting for about 4%. Although it accounts for a low proportion in various risk factors, it has the characteristics of synergy with other risk factors. Long-term heavy drinking will increase the risk of oral cancer, laryngeal cancer and esophageal cancer. Especially oral cancer and laryngeal cancer. Liver cirrhosis is one of the risk factors of liver cancer, and its occurrence is closely related to drinking. 2. Don't eat too much salty and spicy food, and don't eat overheated, supercooled, expired or deteriorated food; People who are old and weak or have genetic diseases should eat some anti-cancer foods and alkaline foods with high alkali content to maintain a good mental state. In addition, it is necessary to limit the intake of pickled, smoked and nitrite-containing foods. Don't eat moldy peanuts and grain, and don't eat the oil squeezed from moldy peanuts. Don't eat hot food and food that is too irritating. Smoked food contains carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. When food is cooked at too high a temperature, frying protein will produce carcinogens. 3, have a good attitude to deal with stress, work and rest, don't be too tired. It can be seen that stress is an important cause of cancer. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that stress leads to overwork and weakness, which leads to the decline of immune function, endocrine disorder and metabolic disorder, leading to the deposition of acidic substances in the body; Stress can also lead to mental stress, causing qi stagnation and blood stasis, toxic fire invagination and so on. 4, strengthen physical exercise, enhance physical fitness, and exercise more in the sun. Hyperhidrosis can excrete acidic substances in the body with sweat to avoid the formation of acidic physique. 5, life should be regular, people with irregular living habits, such as singing karaoke all night, playing mahjong, staying out at night and other irregular lives, will aggravate the acidification of the body and be prone to cancer. It is necessary to develop good living habits, maintain a weak alkaline constitution, and keep all kinds of cancer diseases away from yourself.
