Minimally invasive and precise treatment of malignant tumor / 中国肿瘤临床

ABSTRACT

The treatment of malignant tumor is one of the world's worst medical problem and is thus a research hotspot. The occur-rence of tumor development follows the molecule→cell→tissue→organ process. In theory, treatment can be achieved at any stage of tumor-growth by inhibition. Minimally invasive technology for treating tumor embodies the following direction of tumor treat-ment:minimally invasive, precise, and efficient. With endoscopy or imaging as a guide, the purpose of minimally invasive therapy is to have a small wound and to control tumor maximally at the tissue and organ level;thus, this therapy mode is the best and most pre-cise. This kind of technology has a good application prospect, even in the case of distant metastasis, and can be used to relieve the symptoms and improving the quality of survival by treating lesions affecting important organ functions. Minimally invasive therapy is a great challenge following the direction of modern medicine. With the development of medical science and technology, the important role of minimally invasive therapy in future tumor therapy is foreseen.
