How to treat multiple primary lung cancer

The treatment of multiple primary lung cancer needs to comprehensively consider tumor characteristics, patient health status and treatment objectives. Generally, surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, etc., or comprehensive treatment should be adopted. The treatment scheme should be formulated according to individual conditions. Patients should actively cooperate and regularly recheck. The treatment of multiple primary lung cancer requires a combination of factors, including tumor characteristics, overall health status of the patient, and treatment objectives. The following are general treatment options: 1. Surgical treatment: For early, localized multiple primary lung cancer, surgical resection is the main treatment. Surgery can remove tumor tissue and improve cure rate. 2. Chemotherapy: Chemotherapy is the use of drugs to kill cancer cells or inhibit their growth. It can be used as adjuvant therapy after surgery or as the primary treatment for inoperable patients. 3. Radiation: Radiation uses high-energy radiation to kill cancer cells. It can be used alone or in combination with surgery and chemotherapy. 4. Targeted therapy: If there are specific gene mutations in the tumor, targeted therapeutic drugs can target these targets and inhibit the growth of tumor cells. 5. Immunotherapy: attacking cancer cells by activating the patient's own immune system is an emerging treatment method. 6. Combined therapy: Depending on the patient's specific condition, doctors may adopt a comprehensive treatment strategy with multiple treatment methods to improve the treatment effect. During treatment, doctors closely monitor the patient's condition and adjust the treatment plan according to the treatment response and side effects. Nutritional support, psychological support and rehabilitation treatment are also important. It should be noted that for the treatment of multiple primary lung cancer, each patient's situation is unique, and the treatment plan should be made according to individual circumstances. During the treatment process, patients should actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, follow the doctor's advice, and conduct regular review and follow-up. Key information: The treatment methods of multiple primary lung cancer include surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, etc., and the comprehensive treatment effect is better.
