Can breast cancer be completely cured?

Breast cancer is a highly curable disease. If breast cancer is discovered early and treated with chemotherapy or radiotherapy, the cure rate is very high and the patient's survival period can be extended.

Generally speaking, for malignant tumors, regardless of whether they are cured or not, the 5-10 year survival rate is relatively good compared to other malignant tumors, especially for some well-classified breast cancers. Can breast cancer be cured?

How many times of chemotherapy is usually required after breast cancer surgery?

There is no definite number of chemotherapy sessions a patient needs to undergo after breast cancer surgery. The specific number depends on each patient's cancer stage and their tolerance.

The number of cycles of chemotherapy after breast cancer surgery needs to be determined based on the individual situation of the patient and cannot be generalized. For patients with advanced breast cancer who are completely inoperable, chemotherapy can be done many times depending on the patient's situation.
