Pleural effusion in lung cancer is one of the common complications of late-stage lung cancer. It occurs when cancer cells invade the pleura or lymphatic vessels are blocked by cancer cells. Pleural effusion in lung cancer grows rapidly and is difficult to control and eliminate. A large amount of pleural effusion compresses the heart. , lungs, and mediastinum can cause chest tightness, shortness of breath, dyspnea and other discomforts, which seriously affect the patient's quality of life. Therefore, reducing or eliminating pleural effusion as soon as possible can effectively alleviate various symptoms caused by pleural effusion, thereby improving the patient's quality of life.·· ····So? How to reduce or eliminate pleural effusion? Let’s ask experts from the Cancer Biological Treatment Center of Chongqing Xinqiao Hospital to introduce it to us in detail. The most direct way to treat pleural effusion in lung cancer is to extract pleural effusion. At the same time, pay attention to the extracted pleural effusion. The amount of water pumped out for the first time should not exceed 700ml, and each subsequent pumping should not exceed 1000ml. For patients with large amounts of pleural effusion, pumping pleural effusion should be done 2-3 times a week. The purpose of pumping out pleural effusion for lung cancer is to help with diagnosis and later symptomatic treatment. For diagnosed late-stage lung cancer For patients, it is mainly for thoracic decompression, because excessive pleural effusion can cause patients to have difficulty breathing. Therefore, in the treatment of pleural effusion for lung cancer, the patient should promptly remove the pleural effusion. However, when and how much to remove is affected by the growth rate of the pleural effusion and the patient. It depends on the specific condition, and there are no hard and fast rules in clinical practice. Although the treatment of lung cancer pleural effusion is by extracting pleural effusion, which is the most direct treatment method, because pleural effusion is very prone to recurrence and often reappears after a single extraction, it is difficult to carry out thorough treatment. Eliminate. And while extracting pleural effusion, it is also necessary to inject anti-cancer drugs, sclerosing agents, immunomodulatory and other addictive drugs into the patient's pleural cavity. The purpose is to directly kill cancer cells and slow down the occurrence and development of lung cancer pleural effusion. But at the same time, lung cancer pleural effusion treatment Drugs can also cause pleural adhesions, causing great damage to the patient's body, severely reducing immunity, forming a vicious cycle, and the treatment effect is unsatisfactory. Therefore, experts recommend that in the treatment of lung cancer pleural effusion, a combined biological immunotherapy regimen should be adopted after extracting as much pleural effusion as possible. By regulating the body's immune function, inhibiting the abnormal proliferation of cancer cells, achieving longer-term "tumor-bearing survival" and alleviating the symptoms of lung cancer and pleural effusion. Biological immunotherapy extracts its own immature immune cells and induces tumor specificity through a series of cultures. After the antigen is sensitized, its immune activity is greatly amplified, mature immune cells are obtained, and reinfused back into the patient's body to kill tumor cells, activate the body's anti-tumor immune response, and inhibit cancer cell proliferation. Biological immunotherapy (autologous Cellular immunotherapy) can effectively regulate human immune function, induce cancer cell differentiation, prevent tumor recurrence and metastasis, enhance patients' physical fitness, improve independent anti-cancer ability, block the vicious cycle of lung cancer pleural effusion, improve patients' quality of life, and prolong patient survival.
