What is the difference between benign and malignant brain tumors?
What is the difference between benign and malignant brain tumors? Brain tumors are indeed divided into benign and malignant, but many people do not know what is considered a benign brain tumor and what is a malignant brain tumor. This has also led to many people’s best choice During the treatment period, how to distinguish benign brain tumors from malignant brain tumors? The so-called benign brain tumors refer to those that grow in a certain part of the brain, are well differentiated, grow slowly, and can often be cured. Such as meningiomas, pituitary adenomas, embryonic residual tumors and vascular tumors. On the contrary, malignant brain tumors have poor cell differentiation, rapid growth, and are difficult to cure. For example, glioblastoma, metastases and invasive tumors in the brain are mostly malignant. Some benign brain tumors, due to their deep location and many important structures around them, are already large when they are discovered and cannot be completely removed by surgery, resulting in a poor prognosis. Some so-called malignant brain tumors, because they grow in less important brain tissue, can be almost completely removed, survive for a long time after surgery, and can even be cured. There are very few brain tumors that start out as benign and then gradually become malignant. Therefore, no matter what type of brain tumor you suffer from, you should not take it lightly and seek medical attention promptly. Below, I would like to ask Director Li Guiqiu, a brain tumor expert from Beijing Tongxin Hospital of our hospital, and Professor Feng Lianchuan, a brain tumor expert from traditional Chinese medicine, to give you an overview of the effective conventional treatment methods, surgery, traditional Chinese medicine, selective radiotherapy and chemotherapy, etc., which can be used as comprehensive treatments. The important measure is to consider surgical treatment first. If it grows in a site that can be surgically removed, surgery should be considered first. For tumors that grow in areas that cannot be surgically removed or have multiple brain tumors, conservative treatment such as traditional Chinese medicine is required.
Traditional Chinese medicine is an important method in the treatment of brain tumors. Preoperative TCM treatment can effectively control the growth of brain tumors. Postoperative TCM treatment, combined with surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, can reduce the pain of surgery and quickly restore the body, and can also alleviate the side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. , improve the effect of treatment. Improve the quality of life and extend life. Because most malignant brain tumors cannot be completely removed by surgery, they will grow again in the original lesions, like cutting “leeks”, with the characteristics of growth and recurrence. In addition, simple surgical removal will stimulate and accelerate the growth rate and malignancy of brain tumors. Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine is an essential anti-relapse treatment after surgery. To find treatment and telephone consultation with experienced experts, please search on Baidu.
