GĐXH - Digestive cancers including stomach cancer, colorectal cancer, esophageal cancer, liver cancer, pancreatic cancer... are a group of common and dangerous cancers.

The consultation sessions help ensure collective treatment decisions, in compliance with professional guidelines recognized by the international medical community.", Prof. Thierry André - Professor of Oncology at Sorbonne University (Paris, France), Head of the Department of Oncology at Saint Antoine Hospital (Paris, France), Vice President of the GERCOR Multidisciplinary Cancer Research Group - shared .

In all cases, the proposed treatment must be discussed and decided within the framework of a consultation, with the participation of all relevant specialists. This treatment is individualized for each specific case, based on the stage of cancer, the patient's physical condition, associated pathologies...
For an effective consultation, there must be at least 3 doctors from 3 different specialties, helping to comprehensively evaluate all treatment options. Doctors participating in consultations in the diagnosis and treatment of digestive cancer often include oncologists, gastroenterologists, surgeons, pathologists, radiologists, etc. In addition, treatment also requires the support of many other medical staff such as nurses, psychologists, nutritionists, etc.

After the decision from the consultation is made, the patient will be advised of the results, in which the doctor will clearly explain the proposed treatment plan. The patient will be asked for consent and encouraged to ask any questions related to the treatment and care process. The patient will also be given further guidance on practical issues, thereby understanding and best preparing for their treatment process.
