Including thorascopy and perotoneoscopy.
Mesothelioma Cancer treatment can be made based on various factors such as the location of cancer cells in the body, at the stage of disease, patient age and physical health. To start the operation is the most common method involves the cutting of the tumor in the area affected. This is followed by radiation treatment which affected the high-energy rays and the rest covered. This situation is followed by chemotherapy, which is available in the form of injections or blood in the form of medicines high-end that can be consumed as.
Surgeons have trained pulmonologist, thoracic surgeon, oncologist, radiation oncologist and a pathologist who can help in treating this disease.

stages of breast cancer
Identifying breast cancer stage
When we talk about breast cancer stages, aims to explain the cancer in the body. So, if you ask how breast cancer is staged, doctors often classify whether a non-invasive or invasive. Other factors that are considered as tumor size, the number of women involved, and what other body parts that have an influence.
Determine the cancer stage is useful in determining the prognosis and treatment options.
To determine the stage, some procedures performed by doctors on patients. They undergo a physical examination and a biopsy to obtain the data required by the doctor for diagnosis.
If necessary, other tests were also carried out, such as imaging tests which includes radiography, bone scan, mammography for breast CT, the positron emission tomography (PET), and Magentic resonance imaging.
What is breast cancer stages?
Now that the importance of identifying the different stages of breast cancer has been clarified and the method used to identify, it is now time to discuss each step. Record the characteristics and coverage of cancer at every stage:
Stage 0 breast cancer
This makes breast cancer to be non-invasively. At that time, breast cancer, cancer or not cancer cells can not be detected.
The abnormal cells are still at the stage where they try to spread in certain areas within the cells of roots. In addition, they may try to extend the network in neighboring cells as the cancer continues to grow.
Breast cancer stage I
After entering the breast cancer this phase, it is now classified as a type of invasive breast cancer. That is, cancer cells that have worked their way to the neighbor. Breast cancer stage I also found the following characteristics:
• The size of the cancerous tumor was 2 cm. • No affected lymph mode.
Phase II breast cancer
At this stage, breast cancer, also known as the type of invasive cancer and dirobohkan into two categories:
1) Phase IIA
Even at this stage, the situation may be different:
• A no tumor cells in breast cancer, but were detected in the lymph nodes. • A tumor may be but there are no less than 2 cm; • tumor has spread beyond the 2 cm but less than 5 cm, without reaching the lymph nodes.
2) Phase IIB
This level of invasive cancer that are recognized as one of the following:
• tumor larger than 2 cm but less than 5 cm, while reaching the lymph nodes. • a tumor larger than 5 cm in size, but did not reach the axillary lymph nodes.
Phase III Breast Cancer
1) Stage IIIA
At this stage, both the tumor can be detected or not. In addition to the axillary lymph nodes, cancer may also hold for other structures outside of the lymph nodes and become stuck.
2) Stage IIIB
At this stage, the tumor can grow in size and influence in other areas outside the body of the breast, chest wall si e in the breast or skin. This is the stage where the inflammatory breast cancer occurred.
3) Stage IIIC
In some cases, a sign of breast cancer in May was not yet detectable. However, the tumor can spread to the breast skin, chest wall, and below your collarbone.
Breast Cancer Stage IV
In this level, cancer cells that have spread to various organs of the body. Therefore, cancer is no longer confined to the breast and lymph nodes, which indicates the initial diagnosis of breast cancer. Reason why the diagnosis is made only at this stage because the cancer cells not detected yet in the womb.
Making stage breast cancer is no more than identify the options, but also allows doctors and patients to understand the development model of the disease.

Noni juice is still acclaimed treatment for cancer and cancer-prevention properties. Noni juice contains a variety of phytochemicals, antioxidants, and anthraquinone damnacanthal was recognized that selenium may prevent cancer cell growth and spread of the disease.

mesothelioma treatment
Your oncologist will decide in the line of treatment. A difficult disease to treat and the prognosis is generally poor. Treatment options include:
If mesothelioma is diagnosed in early stage, surgery May be suggested to remove the cancerous cells. Thoracoscopy, or video Cuvettes thoracic surgery help, or be laproscopy May mediastinoscopy. Often, doctors recommend palliative procedures such as the chest tube drainage and pleurodesis, thoracoscopy and pleurodesis, pleuroperitonial shunt, or pleurectomy, which treat the symptoms of mesothelioma rather than the disease itself.
Aggressive outreach is a prescription for mesothelioma patients and is often done with a combination of operations to control symptoms and prevent disease progression. Before starting chemotherapy treatment, research, radiation therapy and traditional radiation surrounding the health of network damage.
Choice of chemotherapy is humming and around 10-20% of patients respond to treatment. Anti-cancer drugs destroy cancer cells and prevent their spread. In mesothelioma, chemotherapy is necessary to treat the disease, the goal is to buy to prevent the spread of the disease, reducing the tumor before the operation, known as neoadjuvant therapy, to eliminate the remnants of the tumor in the body after surgery and without pain and agitation another.
Immunotherapy is the place where the body is to stimulate your immune system to fight against the disease. Modifiers of the biological response, BRMS, are used in treatment. These functions improve the immune system determine the metabolic reactions that promote cancer growth, change the cancer cell division, block or reverse the process that led to the formation of cancer, and prevent the spread of cancer.
Gene therapy, in which efforts are made to improve the generation of the sequence that causes cancer. There are two types, the replacement gene therapy and knockout gene therapy.
Administration of lovastatin, a drug that low levels of bad cholesterol.
Photodynamic treatment in which the photosensitive drug is activated by using lasers. This is done during the elimination of cancer cells.
Drain fluid from the chest or abdominal cavity, followed by the introduction of drugs into the cavity to prevent fluid accumulation. This is done for patients without fluid accumulation and intense discomfort from symptoms.
Trimodal therapy or a combination therapy that combines surgery with radiation treatment.
Often, drugs or medication complete alernative also used. Be qualified for this type of care that focuses on patient's physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. In the case of mesothelioma is impossible to treat patients may choose to pilot a new clinical treatment.

shell of former grandeur. At the cough that lasts for
hours. One day, I can not stand to hear it again so I told
my mother that I must go out a little and that I will be
back soon.
So I left him alone there, coughing, wheezing and gasping
for air. My child is a selfish idea, and see my mother must
suffer also. I'm determined to break the back door. As I
prepared for the slot, I heard the door lock from the play.
I ran through the door and found my mother lying on the
fragile land. "I can not wake up, I can not run, is too
low," he said. "What do you want me, my mama, I'll do
whatever it is." He saw on me and said, "Take me. You have

heard a faint voice from behind the door, "Help, help, I
can not get up. Screamed me," Mother, mother, that does not
open the door! "

Let the Children Know about a Parent's Cancer Diagnosis
Maybe, Some of you fear to let your children know about the situation . It is important to realize that parents and children have very different life experiences. So it is unlikely that a child will react to a problem as an adult would.
Cancer is an impossible secret to keep. Ever heard the expression, “Little pitchers have big ears”? It means children tend to eavesdrop on adult conversations. When children hear conversations they aren’t meant to hear, they may pick up on the anxiety and worry of their parents. Often, they will tend to be afraid and believe the worst if they haven’t been given complete information. The effort it takes to keep such secrets may rob the parent of precious energy, too.
If children hear about their parent's cancer from someone else, such as a curious neighbor or a classmate, it can destroy the trust that parents have worked so hard to put in place. If children think their parents are being vague on purpose or are trying to hide something from them, they find it hard to believe they are being told the truth. So it is better that parents learn how to share this information truthfully, but in a way that allows the child to understand and take part in the discussion. The other problem in keeping the cancer a secret is that the child may incorrectly assume that whatever is happening is too terrible to be discussed. This may lead the child to feel isolated from the family, so the natural desire parents have to protect their children sometimes only makes things harder. Parents know that it is impossible to shield children from all of the stressful parts of life, and i think it is our job as parent to teach our children how to manage these challenges.

World Cancer Day
Diet: Diet low fiber and high animal fat (red meat) significantly increase the risk of colon cancer. Diet high in fat and calories during children payudara.Rokok increase cancer risk associated with some increase in cancer among other paru cancer, esophagus cancer, bladder cancer, uterus neck cancer, stomach cancer, and lip cancer.
Virus: some viruses associated with the occurrence of cancer, such as Hepatitis C virus with liver cancer, with HPV uterus neck cancer, etc. The bacteria Helicobacter pylori bacteria are often found in stomach cancer associated with stomach and small intestine.
Radiation: ionization radiation from ultraviolet sun rays, nuclear radiation, and X rays associated with skin cancer, and cancer leukimia thyroid gland.
Chemicals: Vinyl chloride related to Liver cancer, Arsenic tuberculosis associated with cancer, Benzidine associated with bladder cancer, etc.
Diagnosis?
Dignosis aimed to find the primary cancer and also the spread of the cancer itself (Metastasis). Diagnostic tool itself melipurti inspection Radiology (X-rays, mammography, CT scan, MRI, USG, SPECT, and PET); Pathology examination (tumor Marker, sitologi, or biopsy); endoscopy examination. -Examination of the examination can be determined from the stadium cancer patients. Determining the stadium is important because the therapy will be given. Stadium for the determination of the solid cancer (solid) in the general classification of the TNM system (tumor, node, Metastasis). Treatment? Medicine in general is highly dependent of the stadium from the cancer itself. Conventional therapy that is usually used to take the cancer surgery, and continued with the radiotherapi and khemoterapi to kill cancer cells that are still left behind or that have spread to other organs (Metastasis). Alternative methods of treatment at the time this is in the process of research and clinical testing include immunotherapy, gene therapy, and currently is ngetrend use of human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) and human induced pluripotent stem cell (HIPS) as a cancer therapy, such as some leukimia and glioblastoma. Early prevention? Changing life style or life style is one of the preventive steps that can be done as an external factor causes more cancer-related lifestyle seseorang.Mengkonsumsi food satur such as high-fiber vegetables and fruits, reduce the consumption of animal fat, especially red meat such as beef and goat, avoid smoking, drinking alcohol is not some lifestyle modifications that can be done.
Early detection of the possibility of cancer, such as pap smear for the uterus neck cancer, aware (check your own breasts) for breast cancer, always take urine and feces for cancer or bladder cancer lines digested some of the action is early detection that can be done. The cancer is found early in the stadium means the higher the likelihood of early recovery.
Finally, the happy world of cancer, hopefully the more we raise awareness of the dangers of cancer.
