How many years can a person with esophageal cancer live longer?

Esophageal cancer is a terrible disease. Once you get this disease, many people think it is incurable. The first thing they care about is how many years you can live with esophageal cancer. So how many years can you live with esophageal cancer? Let's listen to what the experts say. The following is a detailed introduction.

The most important thing when a disease occurs is to detect it early so that it can be treated at the fastest speed and in the best time. If patients can detect esophageal cancer early, the 5-year survival rate can reach half. In addition, they should actively receive treatment and choose the treatment method that is most beneficial to them.
If esophageal cancer is discovered early, in the early stages, the five-year survival rate is 50%! This is a common phenomenon. How long can early patients live? If you want to live a few more years, choosing the right treatment method is also the key. Early esophageal cancer patients are best to choose surgical treatment, and they must enhance their body's immunity, which is conducive to early recovery. The best choice for patients in the middle and late stages is generally a combination of Chinese and Western medicine, that is, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, supplemented by Chinese medicine for conditioning to promote the body's recovery.
A positive and optimistic attitude can also help esophageal cancer patients live a few more years. Many patients feel great pressure after hearing that they are ill, which is not good for their condition. Therefore, it is essential for patients to maintain an optimistic and positive attitude.
