How long does lymph node metastasis of colon cancer live

First of all: the stage of the disease determines the difficulty of treatment, the survival time of patients with tumor length less than 3cm is longer, and that of patients with tumor length greater than 7cm is shorter. The location and survival time of different tumors are different. In addition, whether the patient's tumor has distant metastasis and the degree of metastasis are closely related to the survival time.  

Secondly: the patient's physical function determines the progress of treatment, patients with good physical function, strong immunity, can resist the development of cancer, tolerate all kinds of surgery, drug treatment. Patients can regulate their own immunity through diet, eat more nutritious, easy to absorb and digest food, develop regular living habits, so that patients have a good physique, which is conducive to better treatment.
