World head and neck tumor day -we accompany you early discovery, early diagnosis, and early treatment

The IFHNOS (iFhnos) of the International Head and Neck Oncology Association sets July 27 every year as the "World Head and Neck Tumor Day", which aims to strengthen people's understanding of head and neck tumors, so as to achieve early detection, early diagnosis, and early treatment of malignant tumors in the head and neck.

The head and neck tumor is the sixth largest tumor in the world. The anatomical structure is complicated and involved in multiple important organs on the head and neck. It affects the important functions such as breathing, swallowing, and sound. The type of tumor is diverse and the treatment is extremely challenging. Among them, lower pharyngeal cancer is one of the worst malignant tumors in the prognosis of the head and neck. Due to the concealment of its onset, early symptoms are not obvious, and they often mistakenly think that it is pharyngitis and delayed treatment. At the same time, the tumor is easily infiltrated and the lymph node metastasis occurs early. When symptoms are obvious, important structures such as throat, trachea, and esophagus have often been aggressive, and comprehensive treatment of whole throat resection and chemotherapy is often required. Therefore, early detection and early treatment are the key.

Once suffering from malignant tumors in the head and neck, patients often suffer from huge pain. Therefore, how to improve the survival rate and quality of survival of patients is urgent. On July 27th, the World Head-neck Tumor Day 3: 00-3:30 pm, we specially invited Lu Zhenghua, the director of the head and neck surgery center of the Shandong Earnival Hospital, and Wei Yumei, the director of the head and neck radiotherapy department. Starting from their respective professional fields, in detail the common manifestations, treatment methods, postoperative rehabilitation function reconstruction, and postoperative chemotherapy drug adverse reactions, precautions, etc. are made in detail. Well -known experts come to the live broadcast room to analyze the advancement of pharyngeal cancer diagnosis and treatment. People from all walks of life in the society and friends from all walks of life can scan the QR code to make an appointment to watch.
