Doctor's answer:
According to your description, your current tumor is relatively large, and generally, active treatment is required when it is about 5 centimeters in size. The effect of medication is not very significant. The best treatment method at present is interventional therapy, which is a minimally invasive treatment. It has the characteristics of "safe, efficient, less pain, fewer side effects, rapid recovery, and significantly shortens hospital stay," and it is recommended to consider it. Minimally invasive interventional therapy involves making a rice-grain-sized incision in the patient's femoral artery. It is performed under local anesthesia, and microcatheters are used to inject embolizing agents to block the nutritional supply pathways of the tumor. This allows the tumor to undergo ischemia and hypoxia, leading to spontaneous apoptosis and detachment, and naturally excretes out of the body. Through interventional therapy, the tumor is essentially "starved." This method causes almost no trauma, so recovery is fast and pain is minimal.
