How long can a person live after gastric cancer surgery with lymph node metastasis?

When gastric cancer metastasizes to the clavicular lymph nodes and other parts, cancer cells may also metastasize to other organs, such as the liver, leading to multiple organ failure. The patient's body is in a state of severe exhaustion and can only be given support and symptomatic treatment to prolong their survival time as much as possible. If a gastric cancer patient has lymph node metastasis, it means that the cancer is in the middle and late stages. If it is not actively treated, the survival time is about 3 months. Lymph node metastasis of gastric cancer indicates that it is in the middle and late stages.

What are the examination and diagnosis methods for gastric cancer?

So for the diagnosis of gastric cancer, we can now choose abdominal ultrasound and ultrasonic gastroscopy, which are actually the two advantages of ultrasound and gastroscopy. Combining the two advantages of ultrasound and gastroscopy, we can intuitively see the gastric mucosal damage, and we can also reflect the adjacent organs, their invasion and metastasis through ultrasound images. This is a means of examination, so through blood tests, blood tumor markers, so gastric cancer is more relevant. CA199, CA724 and other indicators indirectly help us judge and monitor the situation of the tumor. You can also choose gastroscopy, which is the most commonly used and clearest examination method for examining gastric cancer. It can effectively detect gastric cancer early, determine the type of gastric cancer and the scope of lesion penetration, and can follow up the early lesions of cancer. With gastric barium meal angiography, patients need to take liquid barium before the examination.
