How long can you live with poorly differentiated gallbladder cancer

Gallbladder cancer is not rare. It is more common in women over 60 years old, and the incidence is higher in Northwest China. The exact cause of gallbladder cancer is still unclear. It is generally believed to be closely related to chronic cholecystitis and gallstones. It may be due to long-term chronic stimulation of gallstones, which causes gallbladder mucosal hyperplasia, degeneration, and then cancer. How long can patients with advanced gallbladder cancer live?

The treatment of gallbladder cancer is a systematic process involving many factors. Generally speaking, how long can patients with advanced gallbladder cancer live? In other words, how long is the survival of gallbladder cancer patients? It mainly depends on whether the treatment is appropriate and the patient's physical function. As long as you choose the right method and actively treat it, you can improve symptoms and prolong survival.

For patients with advanced gallbladder cancer who have spread to a large extent and metastasized to multiple sites, palliative surgery can be performed to relieve symptoms and improve the quality of life. If there is obstructive jaundice, bile duct drainage should be performed to relieve jaundice and skin itching; if pyloric obstruction occurs, gastrojejunostomy can be performed.

Improve immune function and enhance resistance to tumors. Gallbladder cancer is more sensitive to radiotherapy, so radiotherapy is a commonly used treatment for gallbladder cancer in the middle and late stages. It has a direct killing effect on tumors, but it can also cause damage to normal cells. Therefore, the time and range of radiotherapy should be carefully selected in combination with the patient's overall condition. The improvement of the patient's physical function is also an important factor in how long a patient with gallbladder cancer can live in the late stage. Only with good physical function and strong immunity can one resist the development of cancer cells and tolerate various drug treatments. Therefore, improving immune function and enhancing resistance to tumors is extremely important for patients with advanced gallbladder cancer.

Do you know how long you can live with gallbladder cancer in the late stage? Pay attention to your diet and maintain an optimistic attitude. In terms of diet, patients with advanced gallbladder cancer should eat fresh vegetables, eggs, and steamed fish. Avoid fried, deep-fried, and high-fat foods. It is not suitable to eat red dates, longans, white fungus and other supplements that are easy to cause abdominal distension.

Patients with advanced gallbladder cancer should maintain an optimistic attitude and actively cooperate with treatment. With the continuous improvement of treatment methods, new treatment methods and drugs, many advanced patients now use ginsenoside Rh2 to reduce the toxic side effects of treatment, reduce inflammation and relieve pain. Ginsenoside Rh2 is increasingly used in the treatment of advanced gallbladder cancer, and the survival of patients with advanced gallbladder cancer is significantly higher than before.

Studies have shown that for patients with advanced gallbladder cancer who have a wide range of metastasis, weak physical functions, and who can no longer tolerate chemotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine can be used for conservative treatment. Although the short-term effect is not as obvious as chemotherapy, the long-term effect is good, and it plays a significant role in improving the quality of life and prolonging survival.
