Does the 5-year survival rate of advanced lung cancer have any difference

summary

I saw a report that lung cancer had a five year survival rate. I didn't know what it meant at that time, but I did not know the whole report after reading the whole report. It was the incidence rate of lung cancer was very high. After five years of testing, there is still no five year survival rate.

Does the 5-year survival rate of advanced lung cancer have any difference

First, the five-year survival rate of lung cancer is very easy to understand. That is to say, after some treatment or without treatment, the probability that the patient will survive for five years is 30%. That is to say, 30 out of 100 patients will survive for more than five years. This is the general term for five-year survival rate.

Second, overall, the one-year survival rate of patients with various types of lung cancer at various stages is only about 20%, and the five-year survival rate is about 6%. For those who can be surgically removed, the five-year survival rate is 20%.

Third, whether there is a five-year survival rate at present can not be determined unilaterally, but only by the overall evaluation. First of all, we need to determine whether it is peripheral lung cancer or central lung cancer. Then we need to know the pathological type and the physical condition. If it is peripheral lung cancer, the lesion is relatively small, and the five-year survival rate after surgical resection is still very high.

matters needing attention

When people around the lung cancer, we must go to the hospital in time to check, and don't drag it, it will bring danger to life. It is suggested to go to the hospital as soon as possible to improve the relevant examination and clarify the condition. If there is no surgical contraindication, thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer is feasible.
