Recurrence rate after gallbladder cancer resection

Gallbladder cancer is a common malignant tumor that seriously endangers the patient's life and has a great impact on the patient's normal life. Surgery is an effective method for treating gallbladder cancer, but surgery will increase the risk of local metastasis. The so-called local metastasis means that the cancer cells in the surgical site will cling tightly to the tissue and lead to explosive proliferation. So what is the recurrence rate of gallbladder cancer after surgery?

The 5-year and 10-year survival rates of patients with gallbladder cancer who receive surgical treatment are 15% to 40% and 10% to 25% respectively. In the later stage, special attention should be paid to consolidation treatment and nursing. The peak period of recurrence is 2-3 months after surgery, so patients should pay special attention. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment for patients after gallbladder cancer surgery can help patients effectively prevent recurrence and improve their quality of life.
What is the recurrence rate of gallbladder cancer after surgery? Surgical treatment of gallbladder cancer cannot completely and thoroughly kill cancer cells. Some cancer cells will remain, which is easy to relapse and spread. In addition, chemotherapy and radiotherapy have toxic side effects (dizziness, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, fever, hair loss, leukopenia, etc.), which reduce the body's immunity and the patient's anti-cancer ability. The patient's physical fitness is worse, which makes the condition worse and accelerates the spread and metastasis.
