Cure rate after secondary resection of gastric cancer

The cure rate after secondary resection of gastric cancer is usually above 60%, and the specific situation varies from person to person. The staging of gastric cancer is mainly determined by the depth of tumor invasion, lymph node metastasis, and distant organ metastasis.

1. Survival rate and staging

The 5-year survival rate of patients with stage II gastric cancer is usually between 50% and 60% after standardized surgery and postoperative chemotherapy. For patients with early stage II, the 5-year survival rate can reach over 90% after appropriate treatment. This data gives us hope, but it also reminds us that the key to treatment lies in early detection and timely intervention.

2. Determinants of treatment efficacy

The treatment effect of gastric cancer mainly depends on the staging and the degree of standardization of treatment. The cure rate of early gastric cancer can exceed 90% through simple surgery. For mid-stage gastric cancer, the 5-year survival rate after surgery is about 50%. Chemotherapy plays an auxiliary role in this process and can further improve the survival rate. The combined treatment of surgery and chemotherapy can increase the cure rate of mid-stage gastric cancer to about 60%.

3. Combination of surgery and chemotherapy

Chemotherapy alone cannot cure gastric cancer, surgery is the key. As an adjuvant treatment, chemotherapy can help remove cancer cells that may remain after surgery and prevent recurrence and metastasis. For patients with stage II gastric cancer, a combination of surgery and chemotherapy is usually the best option.

4. Adjust your lifestyle

After surgery and chemotherapy, it is also important for patients to adjust their lifestyle. They should pay attention to a balanced diet, avoid irritating foods, maintain good work and rest habits, have regular physical examinations, and monitor their physical condition. These measures can help improve the quality of life and reduce the risk of recurrence.

5. Pay attention to mental health

The treatment process of gastric cancer is not only a physical test, but also a psychological challenge. Maintaining a positive attitude and seeking psychological support can help patients better face the difficulties during the treatment process. The company and support of family and friends are also very important.

Through scientific treatment and lifestyle adjustments, patients with stage II gastric cancer are expected to achieve a higher cure rate. Early detection, standardized treatment and a good lifestyle are the keys to improving the cure rate. I hope that every patient can recover with the help of scientific treatment and family support.
