Facing the onslaught of oral malignancy, Mr. Zhang from Heilongjiang chose a new green therapy - tumor hyperthermia combined with minimally invasive interventional technology. This treatment features low side effects and minimal trauma, not only avoiding the disfigurement risk of traditional surgery but also significantly suppressing tumor progression. Within just four months, Mr. Zhang's condition was clearly controlled and he regained hope for life. This case once again validates the clinical value of tumor hyperthermia as the "fifth major tumor control method" and brings more possibilities to tumor treatment.
Case Review
In November 2023, in Heilongjiang, 59-year-old Mr. Zhang felt some oral pain and assumed it was an oral ulcer, paying no attention. Until June 2024, pain in the left cheek intensified. Within just one month, the swelling grew larger than an egg, the area around his mouth became cauliflower-like with purulent bleeding that flowed continuously and could not be concealed by a mask. Multiple local hospitals said they could not treat it, and local doctors told Mr. Zhang based on experience that he likely had an oral malignancy.
In July 2024, Mr. Zhang came to the Oncology Department of Shenzhen Huaqiao Hospital. After systematic examination and biopsy, he was finally diagnosed with an internal buccal malignancy. Subsequently, the MDT expert group at Shenzhen Huaqiao Hospital conducted a consultation. Since Mr. Zhang's tumor was on the face, surgery would require removing half his face. Traditional radiotherapy would also cause side effects such as temporomandibular joint arthritis, making it difficult to open his mouth. After comprehensive consideration, a treatment plan of tumor hyperthermia combined with minimally invasive intervention was decided. Now, after his 6th treatment course, the lesion pain is completely relieved, purulent discharge has disappeared, the hard mass has significantly shrunk, and stiffness has greatly improved.
Mr. Zhangafteraccepting a reporter'sinterview时stated："I'm not exaggerating - I experienced it myself. Each treatment brought a change, and in just four or five months, it couldrecoveryreach this level - I'm very satisfied!every timetreatment course. After each session, it got smaller. After the firstinterventional treatmentcombined with thishyperthermia, after three or four days, oral cavityinside it was like thosetumorkind of fragments - I gargled in the morning and spat them all out. The effect was very noticeable overnightsignificantly, wehospitalmanypatients. Everyone who saw it said the results are truly good, visibly obvious. I really admire thishospital - I'm truly so satisfied!"

将tumor hyperthermia and interventional treatmentused in combination, canfurtherimprove overall treatment effectiveness. Specifically, hyperthermiacan improvetumor microenvironment，improvetumorresponse to local treatment. This improvement enablesinterventional treatmentinfused duringchemotherapy drugsconcentration to increase, thus the drug'sTreatment Outcomesbecomes stronger.In addition，hyperthermiaapplication can also reduceinterventionalperfusionchemotherapy drugs's toxicside effects，makespatientsmaking the treatment experience more comfortable.
Shenzhen Huaqiao Hospital Oncology DepartmentdirectorProfessor Dong Wenguanginterview时stated: "tumor的hyperthermia, is based ontumor tissueand normal tissue's differenttemperaturedifferences. tumor cellscells are heat-sensitive; generally at39.5度or more，tumor cellsthey cannot tolerate and will undergoapoptosis, while normal tissue is unharmed. We combinetumor hyperthermiaThisgreen therapy和minimally invasive interventiontechnologyclosely together, enablingpatientsminimumdamage, minimum的side effects，maximumbenefits."
In summary, tumor hyperthermia and interventional treatmentcombined application has demonstrated1+1>2results, opening new directions for mid-to-late stagemalignanttumortreatment.tumor hyperthermia and minimally invasive interventioncombined application deservesclinical research中furtherdiscussed and promotion. Through continuousresearch和practice，In the futureThisgreen treatmentplanis expected to provideMorepatientsproviding bettersafe、effectivetreatment options. Withtechnology的continuouslyprogress,tumor hyperthermia将aftercancer treatmentplaying an increasingly important role.
