Ningxia successfully implemented the first photodynamic treatment of lung cancer surgery

　　Medicine network December 24th, lung cancer can also "see light death"? On December 20, the reporter learned from Ningxia Medical University General Hospital that in October 2019, the hospital successfully performed photodynamic treatment for lung cancer surgery for a 70-year-old man, which solved the problem of advanced trachea obstruction of lung cancer in the elderly It is reported that this is the first time in Ningxia region to use this technology to treat lung cancer 2019, 73-year-old Wang was diagnosed with scarage cancer in the lower right lung, causing narrow bronchosicoids in the right lung and complete blockage of the lower right lobe Zheng Xiwei, director of the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine at The General of Ningxia Medical University, led the team to immediately conduct consultations for Mr Wang, worked out a complete treatment plan, and decided that Zhang Peng, the deputy director of medicine, would perform photodynamic therapy for him after 2 photodynamic treatment, Wang's right lung in the middle of the leaf is completely smooth, the lower right lung open, the lung function significantly improved, has been discharged from the ventilator discharged it is understood that photodynamic treatment of lung cancer technology uses laser activated photosensitive agents to kill The treatment is first the photosensitive drug into the patient's body, photosensitive drugs will selectively gather in the tumor tissue, and then the fiber will be inserted into the patient's trachea, the use of a specific wavelength laser accurate lyks to the tumor site, so that photosensitive drug activation triggered photochemical reactions to destroy tumor cells, avoiding the opening of the chest and other surgery caused by the trauma and pain Because of the high technical requirements of the operator, only a few hospitals in China are currently carrying out compared with other minimally invasive treatment surgery, photodynamic therapy has the advantages of small trauma, low and complications, palliative treatment, clinical studies show that the early bronchial, superficial, less than 1 cm non-small cell lung cancer photodynamic treatment is effective it is worth mentioning that the photosensitive agents and instruments used in this photodynamic treatment for lung cancer are made in China "Previously, photosensitive agents were imported from abroad at a high price Zhang Peng introduced, thanks to the national master of photosensitive agent development technology, so that photodynamic treatment technology has been promoted, treatment costs have dropped significantly, reducing the pressure on patients (Complete)
