Cyst

What is a cyst?

A cyst is a closed sac-like structure - an abnormal pocket of fluid, like a blister - that contains either liquid, gaseous, or semi-solid substances. A cyst is located within a tissue, and can occur anywhere in the body and can vary in size - some are so small they can only be viewed through a microscope, while others may become so big that they displace normal organs. 

In anatomy, a cyst can also refer to any normal bag or sac in the body, such as the bladder. In this article, cyst refers to an abnormal sac or pocket in the body that contains either liquid, gaseous or semi-solid substances. 

A cyst is not a normal part of the tissue where it is located. It has a distinct membrane and division on nearby tissue - the outer or capsular portion of a cyst is called the cyst wall. If the sac is filled with pus it is not a cyst, it is an abscess.

Chronic inflammatory conditions 

Blockages of ducts in the body which cause a fluid build-up 

A parasite 

Impact injury that breaks a vessel 

Benign and malignant cysts

Most cysts are benign and are caused by plugged ducts or other natural body outlets for secretions. However, some cysts may be tumors and are formed inside tumors - these can be potentially malignant. Examples include kerato cysts and dermoid cysts.

What Kind of Foods Are Suitable for Lung Cancer Patients after Chemotherapy?

　　Lung cancer treatment needs to combine a variety of technologies, after surgery, it still needs to undertake chemotherapy, radiotherapy or other adjuvant treatments. General chemotherapy drugs have comparatively large side effects on the human body, while green chemotherapy of Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou t have been improved on the basis of traditional chemotherapy methods and minimized the toxic and side effects, but there are still minor discomfort reaction. During chemotherapy period, lung cancer patients should pay attention to diets and supplement nutrition for the body as treating or resisting cancer need to consume a lot of energy. Only with correct energy supplement, more effective treatment for cancer can be realized; the future treatments would also be beneficial from this.

　　After chemotherapy, patients may suffer from nausea, at this time patients shall be encouraged to eat more meals a day but less food at each and the diet should be in light favor. Eat more liquid foods or semi - liquid foods that are very digestible and contain less cellulose, and avoid spicy, cold, hard and too greasy foods. Chemical drugs can cause neutropenia, therefore, patients should eat more foods rich in protein, iron, vitamins, such as animal liver, lean meat, jujube, longan, donkey-hide gelatin, fresh fruit and vegetables. Patients who suffer from loss of appetite, indigestion or diarrhea can choose the foods that can strengthen spleen and nourish stomach, such as coix seeds, white beans, jujube and so on.

　　At the same time, we must patiently persuade or encourage patients to intake foods. For patients who suffer from severe vomiting, we shall observe vomiting frequency, volume and color, and apply with antiemetic therapy. After chemotherapy, lung cancer patients may have physical weakness, so they should choose nutritional and easily digested foods, such as soft rice, porridge, bread, buns, fish, eggs, chicken, soups, potatoes, bananas, fruit jam, etc. The diets should be in light favor and are refreshing foods with little or without oil, or try some acidic foods as they may play the role of appetizer. Avoid eating spicy, fried, greasy, salted or smoked foods. If weight loses significantly, then patients can drink yogurt instead of milk to avoid abdominal bloating, and also do adequate exercise.

　　Besides providing reasonable nutritional foods prepared by dietitians, Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou also can enhance patients’ resistance by bio-immunotherapy. Bio-immunotherapy is also called as autologous cell immunity treatment technology, and its principle is to extract patient's own immune cells and make them experience in vitro anticancer activation cultivation and then inject them into the patient. The biggest advantage of this therapy is that using the patient's own cells to inhibit and kill cancer cells, so there won’t be any biological rejection and still can improve the patient's own immune system; what’s more, it can preferably inhibit proliferation and metastasis of lung cancer. Although bio-immunotherapy has no especially ideal effect on eliminating malignant tumors, it still can activate the patient body immune system and make the tumor lose biological activity and stay in a relative static state, so that reduce the pain of patients and improve their living quality.

　　Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou remind patients that the integrated use of multiple treatment technologies and cooperated with the full range of care, can effectively help patients control lung cancer and prolong survival time.
