However fate seemed to like playing tricks on him, in 2011, Mr. Su was detected with colon cancer.

This was mainly due to a year ago, Mr. Su suddenly felt severe lower abdominal with poor appetite, and soon his defecation met difficulties and even was companied with blood.

colon cancer treatment

After Arriving at guangzhou modern tumor hospital, cancer experts inquired Mr. Su’s condition thoroughly and performed Colonoscopy and biopsy for him. The results confirmed that Mr. Su has suffered from a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma, and now it has been spreading to lung. According to Mr. Su condition and physical status, experts decided to choose argon-helium knife treatment for Mr. Su after consultation.

Mr. Su’s son died of brain tumor, and when he heard that he has to undergo surgery, he resisted it forcefully. Facing this situation, Doc. Sun of Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou explained to him and his family that although there is the word “knife” in argon-helium knife, it is not a knife in reality, and won’t cause trauma to your body. In fact argon-helium knife is a "super frozen + high temperature" cancer treatment method, we push probe into the frozen tumor using puncture technology under the guidance of CT, then input argon to make the temperature sharply decreased to minus 120 ℃ ~ 165 ℃ below zero, while at that time tumor tissue is in both blood anoxic "hunger" condition as well as in 165 ℃ below zero of ultra-low temperature, "hungry and extreme cold", create coagulative necrosis; after this, input helium, make temperature surge to 20 ℃ ~ 40 ℃, to defreeze tumor tissue and cause demolish, reaching the effect of destroying the tumor organization. Next, one more time frozen-> temperature regain cycle (cycles). We would arrange the number of treatment as well as of probe as per your condition to destroy tumor thoroughly. During the treatment, we would also apply interventional therapy, as both therapies are for local area, and have the features of obvious targets and remarkable effect, what’s more, as argon-helium knife is a kind of physical therapy so it imposes little side effect and inhibits the recurrence of cancer effectively.

After explanation of Dr.Sun, Mr. Su underwent this option with positive psychological counseling from nurses and other patients. During treatment, he kept an optimistic attitude with the help of other patients and actively cooperated with doctors. After 2 months, blood stool and abdominal pain, loss of appetite have been relieved and his disease has been getting a good control as well.

2012 years of April 26,, Mr. Su took plane from Indonesia to Guangzhou for re-check. He conveyed his fondness to our good service attitude and professional treatment technologies of Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou. After discharge from hospital, his diets and sleep status has been keeping quite good without blood stool, even his weight has regained 1 more kilogram.
