Mesothelioma Treatments

• • Pleurectomy includes peeling the tumor away from the stomach, lung and chest wall yet leaving these structures intact.
  • Extrapleural pneumonectomy is considered to have the best chance of whole tumor removal. It allows other therapies or treatments to be given with less hazard to different other organs.

Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy, which uses drugs to destroy cancer cells, may be used both before and post- surgery, also a treatment for those patients who are not fit to undergo surgery.

Radiation Therapy:

Generally called radiotherapy, radiation therapy uses high-energy beams, for example, x-rays to wipe out harmful mesothelioma cells. To some degree like chemotherapy, radiotherapy is not commonly seen as a healing methodology; rather, it is implemented in consolidation with surgical methods and with the purpose of treating the symptoms. More often, radiotherapy is performed individually to a confined portion of concern, instead of the whole physique.

In most late stage of mesothelioma, surgery, radiation are not applicable and chemotherapy becomes ineffective after many cycles.

Alternative therapies for mesothelioma may be helpful to reduce side-effects of traditional cancer treatment, for example, massage and meditation. They may help your overall management plan, helping you better deal with the anxiety and strain of the illness and traditional treatments.
