Some of them were older and in advanced stage, so he was not suitable for surgical treatment. Now he is going to conservative treatment. So how long can advanced renal cancer live? Let me explain.

How long can kidney cancer terminal live

First of all, it is difficult to have a clear answer to the question of how long can advanced renal cell carcinoma live. The treatment of renal cell carcinoma is a systematic process, involving many factors. Generally speaking, how long can advanced renal cell carcinoma live? In other words, the survival period of patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma mainly depends on whether the treatment method is appropriate and the patient's physical function. In addition, patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma and their families should know more about the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma, and communicate more with the attending doctors, which is helpful to prolong the survival time of advanced renal cell carcinoma. The main influencing factors of how long advanced renal cell carcinoma can live are the treatment method and the patient's physical condition.

Secondly, the choice of treatment for advanced renal cell carcinoma is an important factor affecting the survival time of advanced renal cell carcinoma. Clinical treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma mainly includes chemotherapy, radiotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine treatment, surgery and so on. Although TCM treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma can reduce cancer to a certain extent, it will also increase toxic and side effects with the extension of treatment time. Therefore, drugs and treatment time should be based on tumor remission, symptom remission and treatment-related toxicity. Radiotherapy is also one of the most widely used methods in the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma. It can reduce the tumor size and improve the symptoms. Usually, combined with chemotherapy, the effect is better than radiotherapy or chemotherapy alone. However, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are harmful to the body and should be used with caution in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma who have poor physical function.   

Finally, in general, how long advanced renal cancer can live depends on the treatment effect and physical function. As long as the appropriate method is selected for active treatment, the symptoms can be improved and the survival period can be prolonged. Patients with advanced renal cancer should maintain an optimistic attitude and actively cooperate with the treatment. With the continuous improvement of treatment methods, new treatment methods and drugs are more and more used in the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma. The survival time of patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma has been significantly higher than before. Patients should not be trapped in the problem of how long can they live in the advanced stage of renal cancer and affect the treatment mood, and should not believe those propaganda advertisements. Any patient with advanced renal cancer is not necessarily accurate, and it is the most important to receive regular treatment as soon as possible.
