O Sr. Xu é um típico nativo de Chongqing. Ele é naturalmente picante e infeliz. Entre todas as comidas picantes, a panela picante de Chongqing é a sua favorita. Porém, infelizmente, foi encontrado um tumor maligno com glândula parótida, que é um tipo de câncer de cabeça e pescoço. Embora o diagnóstico seja de tumor maligno, a localização do tumor é clara, sendo recomendado o tratamento cirúrgico, seguido de terapia adjuvante.
When I heard that I had to have surgery and radiotherapy, Mr. Xu was hesitant. After all, the tumor grew on my face. Without mentioning surgery, the treatment may affect the appearance, but the side effects of radiotherapy are definitely inevitable. He doesn’t want radiotherapy. Don’t want to operate. So, he found the frontline treatment of head and neck cancer online and went to Taiwan to do proton therapy. Therefore, he embarked on the path of seeking medical treatment in Taiwan.
He learned in detail the principle of proton therapy: Taiwan Changgeng proton therapy technology is different from other traditional X-ray therapy technology, the difference is the use of heavy particles in the atomic nucleus-proton as a radioactive source. After the high-energy proton beam penetrates into the body from the human body, it initially releases very little energy due to its fast speed; when it is near the end of its range, all energy is suddenly released, forming the highest energy peak-the Prague peak . The Prague peak stopped on the tumor and concentrated energy to attack the tumor. When killing the tumor cells, it also effectively protected normal tissues and effectively reduced the toxic and side effects of radiotherapy.
Para evitar a paralisia do nervo facial e afetar a qualidade de vida, o Sr. Li está realizando uma operação de preservação do nervo facial. A ferida cirúrgica não é grande e não há necessidade de se preocupar com a aparência. Então, a terapia de prótons é iniciada. A tecnologia de terapia de prótons pode controlar com precisão a radiação para maximizar a dose de radiofármacos e todas as células cancerosas alvo sem danificar os tecidos celulares normais ao redor do tumor.
The doctor arranged for Mr. Xu to “proton radiation therapy for 6 weeks and a half, once a week”. In the third week of treatment, Mr. Xu only had the side effects of redness and desquamation on the right side of the skin, but the mucous membranes of the mouth and throat did not cause any harm. The diet and work schedule were the same as normal. However, Mr. Xu had been thinking about spicy hot pot. After suffering from cancer, he dared not touch spicy food again, and finally could not bear it. He secretly ran to eat spicy hot pot. Later, he told the doctor truthfully, the doctor said that although the soup of the spicy hot pot will stimulate the mucous membrane and increase the uncomfortable side effects, because Mr. X’s mouth and throat are completely normal, plus spicy is not related to carcinogenesis, so He told him that as long as he feels uncomfortable, eating spicy pot will not affect the treatment and illness.
Ouvindo o que o oncologista de radiação disse, o Sr. Xu, o foodie, realmente gostou da panela quente picante novamente a cada duas semanas. Como resultado, depois de comer panela quente picante, o Sr. Xu não sentiu nenhum desconforto, exceto por algum eritema descamação seco na pele irradiado por prótons antes, e exceto pela necessidade de ir ao centro de prótons para receber terapia de radiação de prótons todas as segundas e sextas-feiras durante o tratamento Leve uma vida normal.
After receiving proton therapy at Chang Gung Hospital in Taiwan, after more than a month of rest, Mr. Xu’s skin has gradually returned to normal. Moreover, the tracked MRI images have no abnormalities. Except for an inconspicuous scalpel scar on the right, there are no other signs. According to the treatment results of Mr. Xu, the health consultant of Hong Kong Health stated that the treatment effect of Mr. Xu was very good, and the tumor was also cleared. Mr. Xu did not expect that he could still enjoy a spicy hot pot during treatment. Now that his condition has gradually healed, Mr. Xu plans to call friends and friends again to eat a spicy hot pot to celebrate.
