How many years can you live after ovarian cancer surgery

The survival rate after ovarian cancer surgery may be 3 to 5 years or even longer, but the specific survival time should be determined based on the patient's individual circumstances.

Survival time after ovarian cancer surgery:

Ovarian cancer is usually caused by genetic factors, hormone stimulation, endometrial lesions and other reasons. Patients may experience symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, abdominal distension, loss of appetite, and weight loss. As the disease progresses, cancer cells in the body will infiltrate other tissues and organs, causing multiple organ dysfunction, which can endanger the patient's life in severe cases. Patients diagnosed with ovarian cancer need to cooperate with doctors in time for surgical resection to control the progression of the disease. If the patient is in the early stage of ovarian cancer, after the primary lesion is removed, the body can absorb sufficient nutrients and strengthen the physique to effectively control the recurrence of the disease. Such patients may have a survival rate of 5 years, 10 years or even longer. However, if the patient is in the middle and late stages of ovarian cancer, cancer cells may infiltrate surrounding tissues and organs and spread to the distal end. Even if the primary lesion is removed, such patients cannot control the development of cancer cells and may relapse in a short period of time. Then the patient's survival rate may be only 3 years or even shorter.

Things to note after ovarian cancer surgery:

Patients should pay attention to healthy eating after surgery, eat more light, nutritious foods, such as soy products, meat, dairy products, etc., and participate in outdoor sports appropriately, which can enhance physical fitness, help improve the body's immunity, and also greatly help prolong the patient's survival time.
