先进的治疗方案

我们的医生使用最新的技术和方法治疗口腔癌。治疗方法可能包括外科手术、放射疗法、化疗、重建手术或联合疗法。

  • 外科手术。外科手术的类型取决于肿瘤的大小、类型、位置和深度。可能需要切除附近的淋巴结并进行检查,以确定癌症扩散范围。外科医生可能经常使用图像引导技术,在保持出色手术效果的同时尽量缩小手术范围。
  • 放射疗法。放射疗法利用高能射束杀死癌细胞。放射可以单独使用,也可以在手术后使用,杀死可能残留的癌细胞。妙佑医疗国际的放射肿瘤科医生使用先进的治疗技术,包括调强放射治疗(IMRT)质子疗法,靶向攻击癌细胞并保留附近的健康组织。妙佑医疗国际的放射肿瘤科医生开创了新的方法,可以缩短放射递送时间、减少副作用且不会影响治愈癌症的效果。
  • 化疗。化疗使用药物破坏癌细胞。对于口腔癌患者,有时会在手术后使用化疗,以杀死可能残留的任何癌细胞。化疗有时与放射疗法结合使用。妙佑医疗国际的肿瘤内科医生经验丰富,会为您选择最有可能有效对抗癌细胞的化疗药物。医护团队会帮助您管理治疗的副作用。
  • 重建外科。根据癌症的大小、位置和扩散情况,有些患者可能需要接受重建外科手术以恢复口腔功能。妙佑医疗国际的医生率先采用 3D 手术引导。这种前沿技术可以精准复制您的解剖结构,从而实现非常准确的重建。
  • 口腔修复。牙科修复专科医生(口腔修复科医生)帮助您规划治疗,以保持牙齿的功能,并修复那些可能因治疗而受损的牙齿。
  • 康复。言语治疗、吞咽疗法、饮食、物理疗法和职业疗法领域的康复专家可帮助完成外科手术或放射治疗后所必需的康复。妙佑医疗国际的尼古丁依赖症中心可以帮助想要戒烟的人。

Head and neck 3D printing for reconstruction

Jonathan M. Morris, M.D.:

There's really no hospital system that has built as much infrastructure around 3D printing as Mayo has. We've done a lot of studies in the field of head and neck cancer and 3D printing and how they're complementary. Some of those complementary studies just show better understanding of the patient's specific anatomy before entering the operating room. With patient-specific virtual surgical planning and cutting guides, you can save up to 2 hours in the operating room, which means less time for a patient under anesthesia. And we get a better outcome because of all the design ahead of time. We've developed a specialty called point-of-care manufacturing.

All the manufacturing as the physicians inside the hospital, so there's no translation needed. We go from CT scan to three-dimensional model of complex cancer in every area of the body, but particularly in head and neck, quite seamlessly. We're combining surgery, biomedical engineering and radiology all in one place to create not just the 3D printed models, but also the virtual surgical planning.

We take the imaging with the patient's anatomy and tumor and vascularity, and then we print those out in a life-size three-dimensional way and give them to the surgeon as kind of a roadmap.

Daniel L. Price, M.D.:

We're all used to looking at two-dimensional images of patients and CT scans and MRIs. And 3D modeling takes that 2D image and turns it into something that you can hold in your hands and really understand what's the patient's anatomy. Having guides that are custom fit to their jaw, to their bone that we're taking from another part of their body to reconstruct them so that we can get perfect bone-to-bone contact and make them look as much like they did prior to ever having a cancer diagnosis.

But you really have to get it perfect the first time.

We have the opportunity to practice, plan and make it perfect on a computer before we ever get to the operating room. We found that patients had less complications long term when we use 3D modeling. They were less likely to have a plate break, and they were less likely to have that bone fracture or nonunion when we use 3D modeling.

Dr. Morris:

Another advantage is patient consent. When you let the patient hold their own skull or their own mandible or their own tumor in their hands, then you can start using the model as a communication vehicle. Mayo Clinic is an integrated multidisciplinary team. So instead of just surgeon and neuroradiologists meeting to discuss cases, now we have surgeon, neuroradiologist, biomedical engineers, and 3D printing capabilities all in the same care team.

Dr. Price:

We excel at complex patient care. And I think that's where our efficiency and the expertise of all of our colleagues to take care of those complex patients really comes into play.
