What are the Implications of Tumor Invasiveness for Treatment?
Tumor invasiveness has significant implications for cancer treatment. Highly invasive tumors are often more challenging to treat because they are likely to have spread to nearby tissues and potentially to distant organs. Surgical removal of the tumor can be more difficult, and there is a greater risk of recurrence. Treatment strategies may include a combination of surgery, radiation therapy, and systemic therapies such as chemotherapy or targeted therapies to address both the primary and metastatic sites.
