How long can one usually live with advanced liver cancer

The 5-year survival rate for advanced liver cancer is 15%, and the specific survival time is related to many factors such as the patient's prognosis and treatment plan.

Survival time of advanced liver cancer:

For patients with advanced liver cancer, surgical treatment is not recommended clinically. Most of them need to take targeted drugs or chemotherapy drugs for long-term maintenance treatment, actively cooperate with doctors to take medication, and have regular follow-up examinations. Their survival rate within 5 years is about 15%. However, if you do not cooperate with the doctor's treatment and allow liver cancer to continue to develop, your survival rate will be greatly reduced. Although the prognosis of advanced liver cancer is poor, there are also many cases where patients with advanced liver cancer have achieved long-term survival after cooperating with doctors for comprehensive treatment. Therefore, how long patients with advanced liver cancer can survive depends on many factors such as whether the patient actively cooperates with the doctor for treatment and the treatment plan, and it cannot be generalized.

Nursing for advanced liver cancer:

Although the prognosis of liver cancer in the late stage is poor, actively cooperating with doctors for treatment can effectively improve the patient's survival rate. The diet should be light and easy to digest, and medication should be taken strictly according to the doctor's instructions. If you find black stools in daily life, you should be strictly alert to gastrointestinal bleeding. For patients with a tendency to complications, if they feel uncomfortable, they need to go to the hospital in time so that the doctor can take intervention measures as soon as possible.
