How long can you live after surgery for advanced ovarian cancer?

Advanced ovarian cancer is a metastatic condition.

Usually it is mainly lymph node metastasis and peripheral spread, and she often has some symptoms of lower abdominal pain, abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding. Then we can use some chemotherapy drugs after surgery to control the development of the disease.

Ovarian cancer has reached an advanced stage, with a large amount of ascites, or the formation of the greater omentum, as well as infiltration and metastasis to surrounding tissues and organs. Surgery is only a cross-sectional operation of tumor cells, removing the lesion as much as possible. Then auxiliary surgery, chemotherapy, or intraperitoneal chemotherapy, can effectively control the progression and further deterioration of the disease. Its survival rate is difficult to assess, and if the patient's own body index is still OK, it may exceed 6 months.

The cure rate of early ovarian cancer is high and the prognosis is good. Generally, the survival period after surgery can reach more than 80% within 5 years. However, since the early symptoms of ovarian cancer are not obvious and it is not easy to diagnose early, there are still many problems in the early treatment of ovarian cancer. Many ovarian cancer patients are diagnosed in the late stage and have a poor prognosis. According to clinical statistics, there are many factors that affect the survival period after ovarian cancer surgery, which are mainly related to factors such as patient constitution, pathological tissue type, tumor size, and postoperative adjuvant therapy.
