Can late-stage colon cancer be cured after surgery

Colon cancer is a malignant tumor disease with a relatively high mortality rate. There are many patients suffering from colon cancer in my country. Most patients are concerned about the survival rate of colon cancer. Solving this problem can relieve patients' heavy psychological burden and enable patients to better accept treatment. So, can late-stage colon cancer be cured?

1. Immunotherapy: Immunotherapy can effectively improve the patient's ability to fight malignant tumors. It has developed rapidly in recent years. Immunotherapy such as interferon, interleukin, transfer factor, tumor necrosis factor, etc. have been gradually widely used. They can not only improve the patient's immune ability, but also cooperate with chemotherapy.
2. Treatment with Chinese medicine: Chinese medicine can effectively improve the patient's symptoms, enhance the patient's body's disease resistance, and reduce the side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Some Chinese medicines have direct anti-cancer effects, such as Hedyotis diffusa, Scutellaria barbata, Trichosanthes kirilowii, Solanum nigrum, etc. When taking medicine, both syndrome differentiation and disease differentiation can be considered, and medicines that can clear away heat and detoxify, promote blood circulation, nourish yin and blood, remove phlegm and disperse knots, and regulate the spleen and stomach can be added.
The prognosis for colon cancer is relatively good. After radical surgery, the five-year survival rate can reach over 50%. If the patient is in the early stage, the five-year survival rate can reach over 80%, while in the late stage it is only about 30%.
