What is the survival rate for breast cancer?

5%, a small number of patients may have recurrence or metastasis 1~2 days after surgical treatment, which will affect the survival rate, such as axillary lymph nodes or parasternal lymph nodes, and the 5-year survival rate is only 27 years. The survival rate of breast cancer varies according to diagnosis and installment. Patients with stage 1 and stage 2 breast cancer can be classified into four types according to immunohistochemistry: luminalA, luminalB, triple negative, and Her2 positive. The patient's survival period mainly depends on the local recurrence of the tumor or the combined distant metastasis. However, if the prognosis is relatively poor in the middle and late stages, some patients have a 5-year survival rate of 85.

Symptoms of breast cancer pain

Breast cancer is a common female malignancy. Early breast cancer is not painful, but in the middle and late stages of the disease, there may be obvious pain. The pain is continuous and localized, and has nothing to do with the menstrual cycle. Patients with cancer invading the costal nerves experience severe pain, which radiates to the patient's shoulders and back. Breast pain is usually caused by hyperplasia of the glands around the cancer or of the bilateral breast glands, which can cause pain. Chest pain is not a precursor to breast cancer. Chest pain is usually related to breast hyperplasia, which can be diagnosed through breast color Doppler ultrasound or breast mammography.
