Patient's question:
My child is 5 years old this year. Recently, he has been experiencing nausea and vomiting, and he can't eat properly. He has severe upper abdominal pain and went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said it's hepatoblastoma in children. What should children with hepatoblastoma eat?Doctor's answer:
Hepatoblastoma is a poor-prognosis, difficult-to-treat malignant tumor. It is commonly seen in infants and young children and is highly harmful to children's health. Timely detection and standardized treatment are key, as it can actually lead to multiple metastases. Surgery is the first-line treatment method. If surgery is not an option, we can only consider comprehensive treatment methods such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The goal of treatment is only to prolong the patient's life, not to cure it.
