How long can you live if colon cancer metastasizes to the liver

Another reason why cancer is scary is that cancer cells can metastasize. Some people who have colon cancer find that the cancer cells have metastasized to the liver. So can it still be treated in this case? Can it be cured? Let me introduce it to you below.

First, for patients in good physical condition. Although some patients have colon cancer, their physical condition is still good and they can accept surgical treatment. Such patients can directly undergo surgery to remove the liver part where the cancer cells have metastasized. Although the surgical resection is more thorough, the patient's survival rate is still limited, because basically the patients have extensive liver metastasis, which is difficult to remove completely.

Secondly, for patients with average or even poor physical conditions, if the patient cannot endure surgery, then only chemotherapy, interventional therapy and drug therapy are available, which can generally improve the patient's symptoms and provide a chance of cure. If combined with traditional Chinese and Western medicine, the chance of cure will be even greater.

The metastasis of cancer cells is not scary. What is scary is that the patient has given up the possibility of cure before receiving treatment. Such patients will be difficult to cure even if their condition is not too serious. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain a good attitude and actively cooperate with the treatment.
