Diffuse gastric cancer is a highly malignant tumor, which is generally in the middle and late stages. There is no specific drug that can cure this disease clinically, so it is necessary to adopt multiple methods for comprehensive treatment.
1. Surgical resection: If the patient's physical condition permits, it is recommended to completely remove the lesion under the guidance of a doctor through surgical methods, and whether to perform lymph node dissection should be selected according to the condition;
2. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy: If the patient cannot tolerate surgery or has severe complications, radiotherapy can be considered to kill cancer cells or inhibit their growth. Commonly used techniques include three-dimensional conformal intensity modulation and other techniques. At the same time, it can also be combined with chemotherapy drugs to assist treatment, which can prolong the patient's survival time to a certain extent;
3. Immunotherapy: It is gradually being widely used in clinical practice. It is a treatment method that uses the human body's own immune system to fight cancer cells. However, the specific effect varies from person to person. Some people may have an effect, but it may also be ineffective or even aggravate symptoms;
4. Palliative treatment: Since most patients are in the terminal stage of the disease, the main purpose is to relieve pain. For example, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen sustained-release capsules and opioid analgesics such as morphine controlled-release tablets can be used under the guidance of doctors. Chinese medicine methods such as acupuncture, moxibustion, and cupping can also be used for conditioning, which have a certain helpful effect on improving the disease. It is necessary to maintain a good mental state, avoid excessive emotional excitement, pay attention to light and nutritious digestible food, and avoid spicy and greasy food to avoid affecting the recovery of the disease.
