How many years can you live after being cured of lung cancer?

1. How long you can live after lung cancer is cured cannot be generalized. Generally speaking, early-stage lung cancer can be cured through radical surgery. Clinically, the 5-year survival rate is used to judge the patient's cure. The 5-year survival rate after surgery for early-stage lung cancer can reach more than 98%, the 5-year survival rate for mid-stage lung cancer is about 60%, and the 5-year survival rate for late-stage lung cancer is 30%.

2. Lung cancer is a common clinical malignant tumor disease. The specific survival time after surgery mainly depends on the installment of the disease, including early, middle and late stages, but also depends on the method of surgical treatment and the intensity of treatment. The degree of deterioration of cancer can also directly affect the patient's chance of survival. At present, the malignancy of lung cancer can be divided into four types: well-differentiated cancer, moderately differentiated cancer, poorly differentiated cancer and undifferentiated cancer. Generally speaking, the higher the degree of differentiation, the better the treatment effect, and the patient's survival time will be extended accordingly. On the contrary, the lower the degree of differentiation, the worse the treatment effect, and the patient's survival time will be shortened accordingly.

3. Lung cancer patients should take more rest during treatment, avoid overwork, and ensure a balanced intake of nutrition. It is recommended to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and some foods rich in high-quality protein, which are beneficial to strengthen the body and improve the body's resistance to disease.
