( 31 TYPES OF CANCER IN HUMANS that you MUST KNOW )
SOFT TISSUE CANCER
What is a soft tissue cancer ?
Where lies originating from the mesenchymal
tissue , fiber , fat , smooth muscle , skeletal muscle , mesothelial , synovial
, vascular , lymphatic and other malignant tumors of soft tissues ( excluding
internal organs ) , which is known as soft tissue cancer , or the name other
soft tissue sarcoma that . Can occur in all soft tissue sarcomas of the body ,
mainly in the stem retroperitoneal limbs , head and neck , but many more have
palng percentage of about 60 % that occurred in four limbs . Percentage rate of
cancer occurrence of soft tissue around two hundred thousandths ~ 3 hundred
thousandths , accounting for 1 % of the percentage of malignant tumor cells ,
in general the percentage of an infected is elderly , this is a kind of
malignant tumor tissue is very easily spread to other areas of normal tissue
cells , and the case death reached 2 % .
Soft tissue cancer survival
Epithelioid tumor of soft tissue cancer
prognosis is better than all the levels and 5 -year survival of 50% , the
prognosis depends on tumor invasion and surrounding organs in the limbs . If
the spread of this virus and quickly perform an effective treatment , it will
be able to prolong the survival of patients approximately 1 year .
The cause of soft tissue cancers
So far , the medical world still can not
clearly ascertain what the cause of soft tissue cancer , but experts generally
agree that all doctors contributing factor not only by a single factor alone .
1.Faktor congenital abnormalities :
Hemangiomas are more common in infants and children . Most of these lesions are
found at birth . With the growth in proportion of pediatric vascular lesions
and no history of rapid growth .
2.Genetik familial : the results of the
study found that many tumor cells showed chromosomal abnormalities .
Chromosomal abnormalities in human cancer incidence is higher than the normal ,
and the presence of transcription factors .
3.Tubuh foreign stimulation : based on
animal experiments and clinical observations , a foreign body in the long term
can give the body a physical stimulus that causes soft tissue cancer .
4.Rangsangan chemicals : from
epidemiological survey found that a small number of long-term exposure to
polyvinyl chloride workers , will result in liver angiosarcoma .
5.Trauma Wounds : most of the soft tissue
cancer tumors have a clear history of trauma injuries .
Symptoms of soft tissue cancer
The most common symptom is a mass or
swelling , the most common swelling without pain or mass , or tumor invasion of
bone or joint pain , pain at night . Fever , malaise , weight loss or bleeding
general , such symptoms in general , but it is rarely seen .
Soft tissue cancer hazard
Soft tissue cancer growth is very rapid ,
large size , and can destroy surrounding normal tissue . Tumor itself may have
necrosis , hemorrhage and secondary infection , and often through hematogenous
spread or metastasis to the lungs , bones , skin , brain , adrenal , pancreas
and other organs . The patients often die of cachexia , severe bleeding and
extensive metastasis .
How to diagnose it ?
examination Lab
Blood tests : check the biochemical markers
, LDH , protein , electrolytes , calcium and acid and alkaline phosphatase
levels , which is useful in differential diagnosis .
Photo examination
1.X - ray : X - ray radiography can help to
better understand a variety of soft tissue tumors , transparency , and see the
extent to which the growth of the tumor with the adjacent bone .
2.CT/MRI : CT / MRI can find the mass of
soft tissue sarcoma , and determine the size and growth of the surrounding
structures .
3.USG : its scope to examine tumor size ,
tumor capsule border and internal echoes , to distinguish between benign or
malignant .
Bone scans can provide more information
about the type and scope of sarcoma .
Artery angiography : to show the
approximate edge of the tumor .
Pathology examination
Cytology : ① soft tissue tumor ulceration ,
pap smear or collection method to obtain cells examined microscopically ; ② The
soft tissue sarcoma caused by hydrothorax and must take a fresh specimens
immediately by centrifugation , absorbing sediment , and then smear ; ③ entry
needle for larger tumors and more in and prepare for the treatment of
radiotherapy or chemotherapy , is suitable for patients who have tumor
metastasis and recurrence of lesions .
Biopsy : A biopsy of suspicious lesions is
necessary , but a biopsy should consider the option of surgical treatment can
be performed . Surgery and biopsy can be performed simultaneously or can be
done after the surgery .
Soft tissue cancer staging
The rate is calculated based on tumor stage
tumor size , type of biopsy results and whether the existing deployment around
the lymph nodes or more distant metastases . Adult soft tissue sarcoma is
divided into four . I, II , III non-occurrence of metastases in lymph nodes
nearby or distant metastases . Each phase is further divided into a stage (
tumor diameter less than 5 cm ) and b ( tumor diameter greater than 5 cm ) .
Stage IV calculated based on the presence of metastases in the lymph nodes or
distant metastases .
Class pathological useful to determine the
value of nuclear fission in the tumor . In the first stage , the tumor cells
divide more slowly , and yet there was clear stages of metastasis . The second
stage , tumor grade center , the chance of metastasis is less than 20 % . The
third level , the tumor cells divide rapidly , the possibility of metastases
more than 50 % .
Low levels of tumor classification can
continue their lives normally more than 75 %, while high- valuation types of
tumors or malignant just less than 25 % .
How the treatment of soft tissue cancer
1.Operasi/Pembedahan : ① radical surgery :
tumor resection and a certain width of the tissue around the tumor . ② volume
reduction surgery : a method used for some soft tissue tumors that can not be
completely resected , postoperative non - surgical patients to improve the quality
of life and prolong life . ③ amputation : suitable for patients with advanced
stage , large tumor -related and more serious prior to deployment .
2.Radiotherapy : radiotherapy to prevent
local recurrence of light - sensitive tumors , can preoperative and
postoperative .
3.Kemotherapy : using drugs to kill tumor
cells , but because it wanted to get the maximum results use may also be
repeated to produce side effects that are very large .
Characteristics of soft tissue cancer
therapy - " Target minimally invasive , treatment combination of western
and eastern "
Minimally invasive surgery is a modern
cancer treatment in recent years growing in the method of treatment based on
imaging -oriented technologies , the use of modern drug therapy , genetic bio -
technology and high-tech , rapidly kill malignant tumor of the soft tissue , to
repair damaged tissue , promote recycling cells , and serves to restore normal
function , the exact position , accurate treatment , trauma and pain that is
lighter and effective .
