How long will it take to die if osteosarcoma is not treated

Birth, aging, illness and death are all things we will experience. A healthy life is our hope. However, many times it does not go as we wish. Diseases will come from time to time, affecting our health and life. So let’s talk about how long it will take to die if osteosarcoma is not treated:

The characteristic of osteosarcoma is that tumor cells directly form bone-like tissue, so it is also called osteosarcoma. However, osteosarcoma cannot be ruled out even if the bone formation process of the tumor is not obvious. The survival period of bone cancer patients is generally three years, five years, and ten years, which refers to survival of three years, five years, and ten years or more after surgery, respectively. The medical community has its corresponding cure standards for different degrees of cancer. Regarding the issue of patient survival, it also depends on the individual. Some people with better postoperative effects can live like normal people, and can live to 70, 80 years old or even older like normal people. For the treatment of cancer, the key lies in early detection and the patient's positive attitude.

Some osteosarcoma patients fail to detect their condition after recurrence and miss the best time for treatment, which leads to worsening of the condition. At this time, their lives may be in danger at any time. The treatment of osteosarcoma recurrence is the same as the treatment of osteosarcoma. It is important to take systematic treatment in the early stage and pay attention to the psychological care of patients with osteosarcoma recurrence.

1. Osteosarcoma is still a malignant tumor with a high mortality rate among children and adolescents, but early detection and timely treatment have greatly improved the survival rate of the disease.

2. After osteosarcoma is diagnosed by pathology, early chemotherapy or radiotherapy begins. Resection of tumor tissue is an important step in the treatment of osteosarcoma. With the improvement of tumor surgical technology and the development of implant research, limb preservation therapy has shown a good treatment prospect. Consolidation chemotherapy or radiotherapy after tumor tissue resection is very important for controlling tumor metastasis and improving survival rate.

3. Radical surgery should be performed to treat osteosarcoma. If conditions permit, wide local excision can be performed to preserve the limb. In addition, a biopsy should be performed before amputation.

So everyone asks whether osteosarcoma will affect life expectancy. The answer is that it depends on the treatment and various immune factors from the body. Life will continue tenaciously. I wish you a speedy recovery!

Osteosarcoma will more or less affect a person's life span, but we can also prolong life through treatment, or even cure it. I hope my article will be helpful to you!
