The symptoms of bowel cancer metastasizing to the stomach

summary

When it comes to cancer, we will think of "cancer" and "death". In the face of "advanced cancer", the current medicine can only maintain the life of patients through chemotherapy, but can not completely cure them. The incidence rate of gastrointestinal tumors is the highest among all kinds of cancers. Among them, gastric cancer is a common disease worldwide. The incidence rate of gastric cancer is fourth in the whole body tumor, and the mortality rate is second. Let's talk about the symptoms of colon cancer metastasizing to the stomach.

The symptoms of bowel cancer metastasizing to the stomach

With regard to gastric cancer, we should first understand the canceration of any part of the stomach, which is called gastric cancer in medicine, because there are many layers in the gastric wall, including mucosa, submucosa, basal layer, serosa layer, and so on. Just like skin, it is also divided into epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue.

Gastric cancer generally originates from the mucosa, submucosa and basal layer. The location of cancer determines the stage of cancer. Early gastric cancer refers to the invasion of cancer cells into the mucosa and submucosa, which can be cured by mucosal resection. The 5-year survival rate is as high as 90%;

Once it reaches the base or serosa layer, it belongs to the middle and late stage, and the cure rate will drop by half; When the cancer cells break through the gastric wall and metastasize to the liver, they are in the advanced stage, and the five-year survival rate is less than 10%.
