Adenocarcinoma treatment

Adenocarcinoma occurs in all organs and systems of the body, where there is a glandular epithelium. Iron cancer is localized in such parts of the human body as:

• The stomach,
• Pancreas,
• Kidneys,
• Lungs,
• Pischevoda,
• All sections of the small and large intestine, including the rectum,
• Mammary gland,
• Hypofysis,
• Salivary glands,
• Ovaries of uterine endometrium,
• The prostate gland,
• The thyroid gland,
• Liver.

There is no main and common cause of adenocarcinoma. In the case of adenocarcinoma of the prostate, endometrium and ovary, hormonal shifts due to age-related changes in the body can be the trigger for development.

Burns and frequent mechanical damage are the main cause of glandular cancer in the esophagus. Stomach adenocarcinoma is often preceded by a prolonged ulcer process.

No specific symptoms for adenocarcinoma. Patients may notice weakness, weight loss, no appetite, nausea, vomiting, digestive problems. Depending on the location of the tumor, patients have pain of varying intensity in the projection of the abdomen, esophagus, liver, kidneys and other organs.

Depending on the expected tumor location, a diagnostic plan is prepared individually by your doctor or a team of oncology specialists.
In the initial stage, you will receive a consultation with your oncologist. The doctor will collect a detailed anamnesis, listen to complaints, conduct an examination, and review your medical history. After the consultation, a specialist will draw up a diagnostic plan. Most often, the diagnosis of adenocarcinoma includes such studies:

MRI or CT scan. This method is necessary for a detailed visualization of the tumor, assessing its size and spread within the surrounding tissue.

PET-CT. In this study, the patient is injected with intravenous radioactive contrast. Most often it is glucose. Tumor cells have a great ability to divide. This means that they consume more energy and capture more glucose from the bloodstream. This feature allows specialists to assess on the images the areas of contrast accumulation and establish the degree of spread of the tumor outside the primary focus, to identify remote metastases.

Laboratory blood tests. Laboratory diagnostics provides information on the current state of individual organs and systems. With the help of general and biochemical laboratory tests, specialists can diagnose anemia, dysfunction in the kidneys, liver, gastrointestinal tract, lungs. In some cases, adenocarcinoma-specific laboratory tests are performed. For example, in prostate cancer, a test to determine the level of PSA (prostat specific antigen) in the blood is carried out.

Biopsy. Any cancer diagnosis is made on the basis of a biopsy. A small area of the tumor is taken with a thin needle and other minimally invasive method under the control of ultrasound or other imaging methods. The biopsy can also be taken during the operation. After extraction, the tissue is treated in a special way and evaluated by a pathologist in a specialized laboratory.

Adenocarcinoma treatment is a complex, multi-step process, which requires a well-coordinated team of specialists: medical oncologist, radiologist, surgeon, specialists of related specialties. It means that the patient must be diagnosed and treated at a multidisciplinary medical facility equipped with everything necessary for the treatment of oncological pathology.

MedTour website presents foreign medical centers, where the patient can undergo all necessary examinations, as well as get the full range of medical care within one hospital.
Adenocarcinoma diagnosis and treatment is possible in clinics of Turkey, Germany, Spain, Austria, Czech Republic, Israel, South Korea, India.
