How to judge the early, middle and late stages of prostate cancer

According to clinical symptoms, signs, imaging examinations, and laboratory tests, the site of advanced prostate cancer metastasis can generally be accurately determined, and corresponding symptomatic treatment can be given. M staging refers to the situation of distant metastasis. M0 means no distant metastasis, and M1 means metastasis to organs such as bones, lungs, and liver. The staging of prostate cancer is mainly based on the TNM staging of prostate cancer, which is relatively troublesome.

What should patients with prostate cancer pay attention to?

In the diet, consuming too much high-calorie food has a stimulating and aggravating effect on the patient's disease, and the rate of cell mitosis is gradually increased, leading to faster cell proliferation and the formation of cancer cells. Prostate cancer is the most common malignant tumor in the elderly, and the older the age, the greater the chance of developing prostate cancer. Therefore, this group of people must pay attention to the prevention of prostate cancer, and it is best to pay attention to physical examinations. After radical prostatectomy, closely observe changes in the patient's vital signs, provide ECG care, and continue low-flow oxygen inhalation.

How long can you live with prostate cancer?

Prostate cancer is an indolent tumor that progresses very slowly and responds well to surgery, so treatment should be actively carried out to truly prolong the patient's survival time. However, overall, the prognosis of prostate cancer patients is relatively good because the course of the disease is relatively long. Even patients with advanced prostate cancer who have multiple bone metastases can survive for several years because they respond very well to endocrine therapy. How long a prostate cancer patient can survive depends on the malignancy of the cancer, its severity when it is discovered, and whether the patient receives regular anti-tumor treatment.
