However, there are some differences in details, such as organ metastasis. Many patients have metastasis before surgery, that is, in the case of early metastasis. How long can a person with peritoneal metastasis of colon cancer live?

1. Lymphatic metastasis. This is the most common way of colon cancer metastasis. Lymphatic metastasis generally spreads from near to far in the following order, but there are also non-sequential cross-metastasis.
2. Organ metastasis. The main organ metastasis of colon cancer is the liver, and about half of the patients will have liver metastasis before or after surgery.
3. Hematogenous metastasis. Generally, cancer cells or cancer emboli first reach the liver along the portal vein system, and then reach other tissues and organs such as the lungs, brain, and bones. This type of colon cancer metastasis is usually caused by the invasion of the tumor into the capillary veins, but it can also be caused by pressing the tumor during a physical examination, squeezing the tumor during surgery, and even strong peristalsis during obstruction, which can cause cancer cells to enter the bloodstream.
The treatment of colon cancer must be timely, as this is the only chance to cure the disease. It is recommended that high-risk groups pay attention to timely diagnosis and detection of the disease. Regular physical examinations and self-examinations can be used to understand the main symptoms. It is recommended to have regular physical examinations to prolong your life.
