The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the Affiliated Hospital of Taipei Medical College published "Data Report on Ovarian Cancer Inpatients from 20 16 to 20 18", and the results showed that the rate of ovarian cancer patients suffering from endometriosis reached 25%, indicating that endometriosis was highly correlated with ovarian cancer, which was very consistent with the research in famous foreign journals. The doctor reminded that patients with endometriosis must be followed up for a long time and cannot be ignored because of their young age or small tumor.
The youngest patent patient for ovarian cancer in non-middle-aged and elderly women is only 20 years old.
Liu Weimin, director of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the Affiliated Hospital of Taipei Medical College, said that according to the cancer registration report of the Ministry of Health and Welfare in 20 15 years, the median age of diagnosis of ovarian cancer was 52 years old, while the latest hospitalization data of Beijing Medical University was 48 years old, which was less than the foreign median age of 63 years old 15 years old. Young patients under 40 accounted for 20% and the youngest patient was only 20 years old, indicating that patients with ovarian cancer in Taiwan Province Province were obviously younger.
The age of ovarian cancer is difficult to detect, and the size of the tumor is the key to cancer.
Director Liu Weimin pointed out that many people think that only middle-aged and elderly women need to pay attention to ovarian cancer, while some patients are worried about the impact on fertility. Small tumors are not treated for the time being, so let's be a husband and a child. However, age and tumor size are not the key to cancer and the severity of cancer. Small tumors may also belong to advanced stage.
Director Liu Weimin emphasized that the course of ovarian cancer changes rapidly and it is easy to recur. Reports in recent three years show that 60% of patients with ovarian cancer are in advanced stage when they are diagnosed, and the recurrence rate of patients with advanced stage is 40% to 50%. In addition, 30% of patients were diagnosed with ovarian cancer because they were unwell and could not find the cause, which shows that ovarian cancer is "difficult to find and diagnose".
Early treatment, five-year survival rate of 90%, ovarian cancer augmented reality APP debut.
Director Liu Weimin reminded that if you have abdominal pain, abdominal distension, fullness, frequent urination, urgency and other symptoms in the past year, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible. At present, the treatment of ovarian cancer includes surgical resection combined with postoperative chemotherapy and targeted drugs. It is suggested that patients can discuss the most suitable treatment combination with doctors according to their age, cancer stage and reproductive needs. Although the survival rate of advanced ovarian cancer is low, if it can be treated early, the five-year survival rate can be improved to over 90%.
In order to improve people's understanding of ovarian cancer, the Affiliated Hospital of Beijing Medical University will use the Augmented Reality of Ovarian Cancer (AR) APP to interact with people's health education at the end of 10. Through the creative interaction between clinics, more women will know about ovarian cancer and find the early warning signals from the body.
