What is the average life expectancy of someone with lung cancer

How long is the average life expectancy of a person with lung cancer? I believe many lung cancer patients have this question. Nowadays, lung cancer is a very common disease, and there is no accurate answer to how long a lung cancer patient can live. As long as the patient can receive timely treatment, life expectancy can be effectively extended.

1. Early detection and timely treatment can effectively improve the cure rate. The main treatment methods for early lung cancer are surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine. In the early stage of lung cancer, surgery is often used, assisted by traditional Chinese medicine or radiotherapy to prevent postoperative recurrence and metastasis, and effectively enhance the effect of surgical treatment.

2. Correctly choosing the treatment method can also effectively prolong the patient's survival. For patients with early lung cancer, surgery combined with traditional Chinese medicine treatment can significantly prolong the patient's survival. However, for patients in the middle and late stages who are unable to receive surgical treatment, conservative treatment is the best method. According to the patient's constitution and condition, traditional Chinese medicine treatment can be selected to improve the patient's own anti-cancer ability, and inhibit cancer cells from the outside. It has a good effect on the treatment of advanced lung cancer. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy combined with traditional Chinese medicine treatment can also be used for treatment.

3. The impact of tumor malignancy on patient survival. Generally speaking, the higher the malignancy, the more difficult it is to treat and the shorter the survival. How long can a lung cancer patient live? According to pathological examination, tumors with high cell differentiation have relatively low malignancy, while tumors with low cell differentiation have relatively high malignancy. However, regardless of whether the tumor is highly malignant or not, treating the disease and treatment with a positive attitude is the key to prolonging the survival of lung cancer patients.

As a lung cancer patient, don't worry too much about how long you can live. As long as you receive timely treatment, you can ensure the therapeutic effect of the disease. In the process of treating the disease, patients should also pay attention to the choice of treatment methods and not let their own neglect cause the disease to worsen.
