How long is the survival period for advanced ovarian cancer? This treatment for ovarian cancer has a high quality of life
Ovarian cancer is a serious disease that has a particularly serious impact on patients. After getting sick, we should pay attention to it, especially for advanced ovarian cancer. We should improve the quality of life through reasonable treatment and adjustment.
How long can advanced ovarian cancer last
1. The survival period of advanced ovarian cancer patients mainly depends on their own immune tolerance and whether they choose reasonable and standardized treatment methods during the treatment process. According to clinical data statistics at home and abroad, the five-year survival rate of advanced ovarian cancer is only 25% to 30%. It can be seen that effective treatment for advanced ovarian cancer is quite important. Choosing a proactive and symptomatic treatment plan can extend life to a certain extent.
2. Ovarian cancer often spreads to organs such as the uterus, adnexa, or pelvic cavity in its advanced stage, making it a major challenge in diagnosis and treatment. Developing a scientific and reasonable treatment plan is an important prerequisite for patients to have a long-term survival period and improve their quality of life. Surgical resection is currently one of the most effective methods for treating in situ cancer, but it is difficult to achieve ideal results for invasive ovarian cancer, especially in the late stage of ovarian cancer, where cancer cells have already spread and the surgical treatment effect is poor. Local therapies such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy are difficult to clean up cancer cells, and patients are prone to recurrence after radiotherapy and chemotherapy, with significant toxic side effects, which can easily damage various functional organs of the patient and hinder the timely progress of chemotherapy.
3. Ovarian cancer is a common malignant tumor in the female reproductive tract, and many patients and their families are concerned about how long they can survive in the late stage of ovarian cancer. In fact, the expert's answer to this question is that as long as one actively treats according to the doctor's treatment, one can extend their life.
