Grandfather is 80 years old. Some time ago, we found out that he has liver cancer. Now his condition has been controlled to a certain extent after liver cancer surgery. I will tell you how many years he can live after liver cancer surgery.

How many years can liver cancer live after operation

First, it depends on the severity of the disease. For example, the survival rates of early, middle and late stages are different. The earlier treatment, the higher the survival rate. Generally, the average 5-year survival rate of liver cancer is about 36%. The 5-year survival rate of small hepatocellular carcinoma with tumor size less than 5 cm is about 80%. Therefore, early detection and early treatment are the key to improve the survival rate of liver cancer.

Second, in addition to small size, small HCC is characterized by slow growth, low malignancy, low possibility of metastasis and good prognosis. If we get proper treatment, the 5-year survival rate should be more than 80%, and a considerable number of patients can survive for a long time.

Third, the one-year survival rate after radical resection of liver cancer has been improved, but the five-year survival rate is still only 15% - 40%, and 60% - 80% of patients relapse within two years. Therefore, patients should not take it lightly after liver cancer resection. Patients should set up the spirit of optimism, enhance the confidence to overcome the disease, and live a positive life.
