Small cell tumors are often found in the middle and late stages, because this tumor is easy to show distant metastasis, so most patients are difficult to achieve cure, only very early patients without distant organs, given surgical resection can achieve cure. Therefore, this tumor is a malignant tumor with poor prognosis, which occurs in the lungs and other parts of the skin. It is relatively rare in clinical practice. Small cell carcinoma is sensitive to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, but it is also easy to produce drug resistance. Therefore, after a period of control, the patient will show obvious disease progression. At this time, treatment regimen needs to be changed.
