How long can one live with advanced renal cancer? What are the factors that affect the survival of advanced renal cancer?

When kidney cancer reaches the late stage, the survival period is generally not long. The specific time varies from person to person because it is affected by many factors such as the patient's disease resistance and the patient's mentality. The longest survival period can be 2 to 3 years, and the shortest may be less than half a year.

When kidney cancer develops to the late stage, the prognosis is poor even with treatment. At this time, patients tend to be particularly pessimistic and feel that death will come at any time. So, how long can patients with kidney cancer in the late stage live?

1. How long can you live with advanced kidney cancer?

When kidney cancer reaches the late stage, the survival period is generally not long. The specific time varies from person to person because it is affected by many factors. If you can actively treat it and face the disease with a good attitude, the survival period may be 2 to 3 years; if you are pessimistic and even give up treatment, the survival period may be less than half a year.

2. Factors Affecting Survival in Advanced Renal Cancer

1. The patient's disease resistance

If the patient has a good disease resistance, even if kidney cancer has developed to the late stage, the survival time will generally be longer; if the disease resistance is particularly poor and cannot prevent the invasion of cancer cells, the survival time will often be shorter.

2. Patient’s mentality

The quality of your mentality will also affect your survival period. If you can face the disease optimistically in the late stage of kidney cancer and actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, your survival period will be longer. If you become pessimistic and depressed after becoming ill, your survival period will generally be shorter.
