(Verify) Is the small bump on the body a tumor?

Reporter Feng Jincan Correspondent Chang Rong

The limbs and trunk are small, and the pain is red and swollen. Is it a tumor? Can it be "everything"?

Yao Weitao, director of the Bone and Soft Tissue Department of Henan Cancer Hospital, said that compared with common high -incidence tumors, sarcoma is a "niche" tumor, which is rare to be called "forgotten cancer." The early signal of its onset is generally "small pupa" on the limbs, trunk and body surface. However, there are many sarcoma pathology, and different treatment plans need to be taken for different types of differential types.

What is the "sarcoma"?

According to Yao Weitao, the "sarcoma" that everyone calls is a collective name that originated from a malignant disease that originated from a medium -fitting or connective tissue. There are more than 70 sub -types of sarcoma, mainly soft tissue sarcoma (more than 50 subtypes) and malignant bone tumors (more than 20 subtypes), the most common of which is ostearm tumors.

Blumarofar is a common malignant bone tumor for teenagers. It is more common in the age of 10 to 25 and mainly occurs in the lower limbs, especially around the knee joint. Some of the early symptoms of osteosarcoma are easily overlooked. Most of them are mid -term when the symptoms occur after symptoms, and some are even late. Whether it can be detected and diagnosed early is directly related to whether it can retain body and limbs, which has a lot to do with the improvement of cure rate.

Soft tissue sarcoma is from malignant tumors such as fat, fascia, muscle, fiber, lymph, and vascular tissue. The incidence rate is about 1/100,000, which can occur in any part. About 75%of the lesions are located on the limbs (most commonly in thighs) The hips are most common in uniminaged polygonal sarcoma, fat sarcoma and synovial sarcoma; 20%to 25%are behind the peritoneal or abdominal cavity.

Soft tissue sarcoma can occur in any age group, among which men are slightly more than women. Eyebal muscular sarcoma is good for children. Polycinicolytic muscles are mostly occurred in adult trunk. Smooma sarcoma often occurs in young and middle -aged people, while unlimized polymorphosarcoma, liposarcoma, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor and smooth synovial sarcoma are more Seeing middle -aged and elderly people.

Is "small pimple" soft tissue sarcoma?

Yao Weitao said that although soft tissue sarcoma is "low -key", there are still traces to follow. The early signal of its onset is generally "small pupa" on the limbs, trunk and body surface. We can make preliminary judgments based on the parts, size, texture, activity, growth rate, etc. that appear "small".

If the touch activity is better, the texture is relatively soft, and the growth is slow, often there is no local symptoms such as pain and soreness, and consider more benign tumors.

Yao Weitao reminded that not all small pimples are sarcoma, but it is found that it is more critical for sarcoma. To keep the "small bumps" in the outside world, continue to increase or accompanied by clinical symptoms, that is, the pain and redness of the limbs, go to the regular hospital bone and soft tissue department for examination in time. Generally It can be found under the B -ultrasound.

The only reliable way to determine the good and evil of tumors is to organize biopsy (preferred biopsy), obtain pathological diagnosis, complete the diagnosis of sarcoma staging and typing diagnosis.

Can soft tissue sarcoma "everything"?

Yao Weitao reminded that the soft tissue sarcoma has 19 tissue types and different subtypes of more than 50, and different treatment plans need to be adopted for different types. At present, the main therapy includes surgery, radiotherapy and internal medicine. In addition, molecular targeted therapy can be used.

When suspected soft tissue sarcoma, do not "everything", go to the oncology specialist hospital for treatment. After imaging examination, the "good and evil" of the lump is distinguished by a puncture biopsy, and different pathological typing can be divided into different pathological types.

Yao Weitao reminded that the normality of the first treatment will greatly reduce the risk of recurrence and metastasis of soft tissue sarcoma, which is of great significance for the treatment of soft tissue sarcoma.

Yao Weitao said that Henan Cancer Hospital established the first professional bone and soft tissue tumor MDT in the province, which can provide a standard and individual diagnosis and treatment plan for patients with bone and soft tissue tumors to effectively improve the survival of bone and soft tissue tumors.
