Abstract
Cancer is becoming one of the major diseases with serious hazards to human health. To find efficient treatment protocols has always been the important subject in cancer studies. According to the statistical data of the world health organization, the incidence and mortality of cancer show a continuous increasing trend. Therefore, cancer treatment is widely concerned. Based on clinical knowledge. The therapy of cancer has been proved to be with significant efficacy and superiorities in both experimental and clinical trials. The principle of therapy of cancer and some recent technologies in cancer therapy were summarized.With the extension of the average life expectancy of human beings, the threat of cancer to human beings has become increasingly prominent and it has become the first cause of death for urban and rural residents in China. At present, there are many kinds of malignant tumors, different types of properties, different tissues and organs involved, different disease periods, and different responses to various treatments, so most patients need comprehensive treatment. The so-called comprehensive treatment is based on the patient’s physical condition, the pathological type of the tumor, the scope of invasion, etc., comprehensively using surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine treatment, interventional therapy, microwave therapy, etc., in order to greatly improve the cure and improve the quality of life of patients.In theory, if the tumor cells are completely removed by surgery, the cancer can be cured. Surgical resection is still the treatment of choice for early or earlier solid tumors. According to the purpose of the surgery, it can be divided into the following categories: Radical Surgery [1]: Because the malignant tumor grows fast, there is no envelope on the surface, it has no obvious boundary with the surrounding normal tissue, local infiltration is obvious, and it can be transferred through lymphatic vessels. Therefore, the surgery should completely remove the tumor and a range of normal tissues around it and the lymph nodes that may be violated. This kind of surgery is suitable for patients with limited tumor range, no distant metastasis, and good physical condition. According to the scope of resection, it is divided into tumor resection, extensive resection, radical operation and extended radical surgery. Palliative Surgery: It has a wide range of tumors. Patients with advanced metastases who cannot be treated for radical surgery can only remove some tumors or perform some symptoms-reducing operations, in order to relieve pain, maintain nutrition and prolong life. Surgery, digestive tract short circuit and other operations. Advanced tumors can do most of the tumor resection, reduce the tumor burden, and lay the foundation for future radiotherapy, chemotherapy or other treatment. For example, advanced ovarian cancer can palliatively remove most ovarian tumors [2], and undergo secondary surgery after chemotherapy to remove residual lesions, which can significantly prolong the survival of patients.
