How long can you live after surgery for malignant glioma

How long can a patient live after surgery for a malignant glioma? There are many types of gliomas in clinical practice, among which brain gliomas are malignant gliomas with a high mortality rate. According to statistics, this intracranial tumor ranks second among childhood malignant tumors. Currently, the treatment methods for gliomas are mainly surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. So, how long can a patient live after surgery for a malignant glioma?

How long a patient can live after surgery depends on the patient's condition, physical fitness, treatment methods, postoperative recurrence, tumor metastasis, etc. It is difficult to determine how long they can live. Generally, patients with grade 1-2 have a longer survival period, about 5-10 years; patients with grade 3-4 have a shorter survival period, about 1 year. However, patients must maintain an optimistic attitude, actively fight the disease, and do a good job of postoperative care, which is also very helpful in prolonging life.

Eliminate or avoid various factors that cause the recurrence of brain glioma, and actively treat chronic diseases related to tumors. All patients should maintain a good attitude, relax their minds, be happy, avoid excessive mental stress and some adverse stimulation. Some drugs should also be used as auxiliary treatment. Improve the body's immune function and disease resistance. Carry out some exercises suitable for the elderly, such as jogging, Tai Chi, etc.

Regular or frequent check-ups are required, and drugs are also used for adjuvant treatment to control the spread of tumor cells. Our hospital experts recommend the use of drugs for treatment. The characteristics of drugs are to inhibit the growth of new blood vessels in tumors, causing tumors to degenerate, shrink, and disappear; improve the body's immune function, enhance the activity of anti-cancer factors in the body to kill cancer cells; enhance bone marrow hematopoiesis, increase white blood cells, and enhance tolerance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

Adjust the dietary structure, take in nutritious and comprehensive foods, take in foods rich in protein, amino acids, and high in vitamins, ensure a certain amount of fresh vegetables every day, advocate the intake of whole grains, and ensure sufficient trace elements and dietary fiber. It is recommended that patients actively receive treatment and use biological treatment methods to treat the disease. This technology has a good effect and can effectively prevent the recurrence and metastasis of tumors and prolong the patient's life.
