Can   adrenal cancer be cured? Adrenal cancer is a kind of malignant tumor that occurs frequently in children. It is more common in children under 12 years old. Adults rarely have the disease. The most worried about children''s illness is parents. The pain is in the child, and the pain is in the heart of the parents. Once the disease is diagnosed, it must be actively treated. So, can adrenal cancer be cured?

  adrenal cortical cancer, the tumor volume is generally large, often above 100g, and even up to 1000g, showing invasive growth , The state is unclear, the cut surface is brown or multi-colored, the quality is soft, and there are often bleeding, necrosis and cystic changes. It can be observed under the microscope that the poorly differentiated tumor cells have large heteromorphism, and multinuclear tumor giant cells and mitotic images are often seen; well-differentiated like adenoma, if the tumor is small and has an envelope, it is difficult to distinguish from adenoma.

  Adrenal cortical cancer is mostly functional, and often shows female virilization and adrenal hyperfunction, and is prone to local infiltration and metastasis. If there is lymphatic and bloodway spread, the average survival time is 2 years. The identification of functional and non-functional adrenal cortical tumors mainly depends on clinical manifestations, biochemical and hormone determination.

   As far as current medical technology is concerned, adrenal cortical cancer cannot be completely eradicated. Even if surgery was performed early, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, although the tumor was removed or small, it caused the etiology of adrenal cortical adenocarcinoma The machine has not changed. It is easy to relapse and metastasize. Only after surgery or immediately after radiotherapy takes Chinese medicine to change the etiology and pathogenesis, which makes the tumor lose the chance of recurrence and metastasis.

  Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a malignant tumor that originates in the adrenal cortex. The clinical incidence is low, the malignancy is high, the early diagnosis rate is not high, the prognosis is poor, and surgery is currently the most effective. The only possible cure. When the surgery cannot completely remove the tumor or the tumor recurs, drug treatment is recommended, which can effectively control the development of the disease.
