Will I die from bone cancer?

How long can a person with bone cancer live? This is a difficult question to answer. It mainly depends on the patient's specific condition, physical condition, whether the patient receives effective treatment, whether the patient has good care, whether the patient is in a good mental state, whether the patient has a certain financial ability to receive treatment, etc. The best patients can live for decades, while the worst patients can live for only a few months.

How long can patients with advanced bone cancer survive? This is mainly related to the treatment method of the patient. Depending on the treatment method, pathological type, stage, and patient condition, the survival rate is also different. It is possible to survive from a few months to several years, or even more than ten years. It requires specific analysis and cannot be generalized. Primary bone cancer is prone to occur in young people around 12-20 years old, while metastatic bone cancer and multiple myeloma metastasis often occur in those aged 50-60. There is no accurate number for how long patients with advanced bone cancer can survive. In order to enable patients with advanced bone cancer to live longer, the main thing is to improve the patient's quality of life and delay the patient's death. Patients should maintain a good health mentality and actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment. At the same time, understand the necessary daily health care and preventive measures to avoid complications.

According to relevant literature reports, the natural survival period of bone cancer patients who are not treated after diagnosis is several months to one year. Among the distant metastases of malignant tumors in many organs, bone metastasis ranks first. Because bone cancer progresses slowly, it is often difficult for patients to notice when it occurs. Therefore, most bone cancer patients seek medical treatment late, lose the opportunity for early treatment, and have a poor prognosis. Bone cancer can be divided into benign and malignant. The age of onset is generally between 10 and 25 years old, and malignant can be divided into many types. Because the cause of tumor occurrence is not yet completely clear, some have a certain relationship with genetics, while bone malignant tumors are often sporadic and seem to have no clear relationship with genetics. However, according to many cases, it can be seen that the bone growth and metabolism of adolescents are particularly vigorous, and it is easy to produce a mutation, which leads to the occurrence of malignant tumors.
