Life expectancy after renal cancer surgery
summary
My mother is 51 years old. She didn't find any problems in the physical examination in July. In September, she found a renal tumor with a diameter of 2.5cm and malignant. The doctor suggested that the affected kidney should be completely removed. Before and after the physical examination, the body did not have any symptoms related to renal cancer. Now it's slightly improved. For the life expectancy after renal cancer surgery, let me tell you.
Life expectancy after renal cancer surgery
One: in the early stage of renal cancer, a reasonable treatment for patients in the future rehabilitation plays a very important role. At this time, many people tend to care about how long life can be prolonged after renal cancer surgery, and ignore some postoperative care. Only do a good job of postoperative treatment and nursing, in order to maximize the extension of life.
Second, renal cell carcinoma is prone to tumor thrombus in renal vein and inferior vena cava. In recent years, it is believed that if local or distant spread is not found, the tumor thrombus in renal vein or inferior vena cava can be removed at the same time during radical nephrectomy, and the prognosis is still good. The occlusion of inferior vena cava during operation should be above the level of thrombus to avoid fatal pulmonary embolism. If the thrombus extends to the heart, the inferior vena cava can be blocked in the pericardium, and then the inferior vena cava can be cut to remove the thrombus.
Third: advanced renal cancer, cancer cells spread to other tissues, causing a series of lesions in other organs: hospitalization treatment, at the same time, according to the needs of patients, the actual situation of comprehensive consideration. The early cure rate of renal cell carcinoma is relatively high, and the late cure rate is relatively low, only patients can actively treat.
matters needing attention
To improve the survival rate of renal cell carcinoma, it is necessary to continue treatment after operation to prevent tumor recurrence and metastasis. Postoperative treatment should eliminate the residual cancer cells, improve the immunity of patients and improve the quality of life.
