What is neuroendocrine carcinoma of lung cancer

BY Iris Wheatley 2020-07-30

  Neuroendocrine cancer is a cancer with endocrine function. It is often divided into large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma, carcinoid, atypical carcinoid, and small cell carcinoma. Carcinoid tumors are the best. Generally, excision is sufficient, and the rate of metastasis and recurrence is low. Small cell carcinoma is highly malignant and progresses rapidly. Atypical carcinoids are equivalent to the cancer we often say. Large cell carcinoma is also highly malignant. lung cancer(57).jpg

  Neuroendocrine cancer is an endocrine cancer. It is the same as normal cancer treatment, no difference. Although neuroendocrine cancer is rare, the treatment method is similar to other cancers. There is no special thing. The main thing is to pay attention to the endocrine function of cancer. You can use some hormones or drugs to fight the hormones produced by cancer to maintain the stability of hormone levels in the body. Simply from the perspective of cancer treatment, there is no better treatment plan, that is, surgery + radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

  Lung cancer is a malignant respiratory disease, which can be metastasized through blood, lymph, and implantation. Neuroendocrine cancer is highly malignant and has a poor prognosis. Of course, specific needs to be judged based on the results of pathological examination. Prompt and standardized treatments, such as chemotherapy, Chinese medicine-assisted anti-cancer and other comprehensive treatments, do not get tired and stay up late.

  Pulmonary neuroendocrine carcinoma is a tumor that can secrete various hormones or hormone analogues. This disease is rare in clinic. It is highly malignant and prone to metastasis and recurrence. Early detection and treatment is the key. The first choice of treatment is surgery. If surgery is not possible, it can only be considered by comprehensive treatment such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and traditional Chinese medicine-assisted anti-cancer treatment. It is difficult to cure. The prognosis of different pathological stages is different.
