Biliary duct cancer will recur a few years after resection

In today's society, with the rapid development of medicine, new breakthroughs have been found in the treatment of many diseases. However, there is a disease that people often talk about with fear, and that is cancer. Biliary duct cancer is also a type of cancer. So how many years after bile duct cancer is removed will it recur? Let us learn about it today.

Cholangiocarcinoma is a common malignant tumor in clinical practice. Its onset is related to bile duct stones, liver fluke disease, viral infection, autoimmune diseases, etc., and special vigilance is required in daily life. After suffering from cholangiocarcinoma, patients will not only suffer great pain, but also endanger their lives. In clinical practice, many patients have achieved clinical cure after treatment.

Is it true that bile duct cancer will not recur after recovery? Is this really the case? Clinical cure of bile duct cancer means no recurrence five years after surgery. In fact, two years after surgery is the peak period of recurrence. Once five years have passed, the chance of recurrence is relatively small. However, a relatively small chance of recurrence does not mean that there will be no recurrence. The risk still exists, so patients should not take it lightly and eat and drink too much, have irregular work and rest, etc. At the same time, postoperative consolidation treatment is also necessary.

At the same time, patients should also adjust their own state, get rid of negative emotions such as pessimism, despair, and depression, live and treat with a calm, happy, and positive attitude, fight the cancer with the belief that they will win, not be impatient for success, and be prepared for a protracted battle and long-term treatment until the cancer is completely defeated.
