Prostate cancer bone metastasis survival period

Prostate cancer is a highly malignant tumor disease. The clinical symptoms are not obvious in the early stage of the disease. In the later stage, symptoms such as low fever, fatigue, and weight loss may appear. Some patients will also suffer from anemia. Severe patients will have symptoms such as renal failure. Patients may develop bone metastasis in the later stage. If bone metastasis occurs, how should it be treated? How long can patients with bone metastasis survive? This is a question that many friends are very concerned about. Let us introduce it together below.

About 60% of prostate cancer will develop bone metastasis. Some patients will experience fatigue and low fever. The question of survival time for bone metastasis still needs to be answered specifically. If bone metastasis occurs, radiotherapy or chemotherapy can be used to effectively relieve the symptoms. If the patient has a good physique, the survival time can reach more than 5 years, but some patients cannot bear the pain of chemotherapy, and their immunity is low and they are infected by some pathogenic microorganisms, forming other complications, and finally they will die. The patient's survival time is generally between 1 and 2 years, but some patients will have a shorter survival time. The specific time depends on the individual. These are just for reference.

Cryotherapy can be used for patients with prostate cancer that has already undergone bone metastasis. This treatment method mainly uses the characteristics of low temperature to disrupt the metabolism of tumor cells in a low temperature environment, which may lead to necrosis. This treatment method is effective, but it is rarely used at present.

This is the end of this article. I believe that everyone has a certain understanding of this issue. Prostate cancer is also very harmful to the human body. Patients should develop a reasonable eating habit. They should eat more fruits and vegetables in their daily lives to reduce the occurrence of constipation. They should also pay attention to drinking more water, but they should not accept irritating foods such as alcohol to keep the scrotal tissue clean. Develop a regular living habit, do not stay up late, and eat at regular times and in fixed quantities.
