How long can you live with malignant gallbladder cancer

How long can a person with gallbladder cancer live? This is a question that many patients with gallbladder cancer want to know. These questions need to be estimated based on the patient's own situation, and there is no definite answer. Patients should not limit themselves to the question of how long they can live with gallbladder cancer. They should maintain a good attitude and accept treatment, which is the best guarantee for prolonging life.

When gallbladder cancer is diagnosed, don't worry too much about how long you can live with it. The most important thing is to cooperate with the treatment. For patients with gallbladder cancer, how long they can live depends mainly on timely medical treatment and choosing the appropriate treatment method. The main methods for treating gallbladder cancer clinically are surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, Chinese medicine therapy and DC-CIK cell immunotherapy. Surgery can quickly remove the tumor, but it only removes local lesions and cannot cure the tumor, which can easily cause tumor metastasis and recurrence. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy can kill tumor cells locally or systemically and are effective quickly, but they cannot eradicate tumor cells, and have large systemic toxic side effects. They are very likely to cause symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, and hair loss, which aggravate the patient's condition and cause damage to the body's immune function.
