鼻咽癌放射治療精準調整降低副作用 病人三年後功能良好

Quick Look

衛福部台北醫院放射腫瘤科醫師任崇文指出,鼻咽癌放射治療期間腫瘤縮小,應隨之調整照射範圍以保護正常組織,降低口乾、吞嚥困難等副作用。病人陳先生接受精準分區治療後,三年追蹤顯示腫瘤控制良好,言語與吞嚥功能獲保留。

Why It Matters

鼻咽癌對放射線敏感,是標準治療方式,但治療區域鄰近腮腺、脊髓、腦幹等重要器官,如何在消滅腫瘤同時保護正常組織是放射治療的主要挑戰。

〔記者翁聿煌/新北報導〕「醫師,我治好了以後,還能正常吃飯、說話嗎?」42歲陳先生確診第三期鼻咽癌後,面對放射治療,最擔心治療帶來的副作用。醫師指出,鼻咽癌治療期間腫瘤會逐漸縮小,因此放射治療計畫也應隨著腫瘤變化重新調整;在維持治療效果的同時,進一步降低口乾、吞嚥困難等副作用,這是目前精準醫療對病人治癒後生活與功能影響的重要關鍵。

衛生福利部台北醫院放射腫瘤科醫師任崇文表示,鼻咽癌對放射線相當敏感,放射治療一直是鼻咽癌的重要標準治療方式,然而,鼻咽位置鄰近腮腺、脊髓、腦幹等重要器官。如何在消滅腫瘤的同時,盡可能保護正常組織,一直是放射治療最大的挑戰,鼻咽癌放射治療通常需進行6至7週,在療程中,腫瘤往往會逐漸縮小;雖然這代表治療有效,但若仍沿用療程開始時的放射治療計畫,原本圍繞腫瘤的高劑量照射範圍,可能持續照射到已不需要接受高劑量的正常組織,增加口乾、吞嚥困難等副作用風險。

請繼續往下閱讀...

任崇文採用精準治療方式,依照病人治療狀況重新安排電腦斷層模擬定位,重新規劃放射治療範圍,讓照射範圍隨著腫瘤縮小同步調整,使腮腺等重要器官退出高劑量照射區域。這項精準分區處理的方式,能進一步降低正常組織受到的影響。

陳先生在療程中接受重新規劃放射治療,治療期間雖曾出現口腔黏膜炎及吞嚥疼痛,但在醫療團隊持續照護下順利完成療程,如今持續追蹤超過3年,腫瘤控制良好,沒有復發跡象,說話及吞嚥功能也都獲得保留。陳先生說,原本以為治療後口水會乾到沒辦法吃東西,沒想到比想像中好很多,現在還能跟家人一起吃飯聊天。

Japanese psychologist Mieko Miyazaki pointed out that directive communication that urges children to do homework is poisonous to parent-child communication.
