Reasons why osteosarcoma recurs

Many osteosarcoma patients are concerned about the question "Will osteosarcoma recur?" after medical treatment. Here I can clearly tell all patients that osteosarcoma will recur after treatment. Only after understanding the causes of recurrence of osteosarcoma after surgery can we better reduce the postoperative recurrence rate through effective prevention. Now I will introduce to you the reasons why osteosarcoma recurs.

Some osteosarcoma patients will still experience varying degrees of recurrence after treatment. The reasons for osteosarcoma recurrence are as follows:

1. Affected by cell metabolism level:

The investigation found that the malignancy of elderly bone cancer patients is relatively low and the prognosis is better, while the malignancy of young patients is relatively high and the prognosis is also poor. This shows that the level of cell metabolism is also the main cause of postoperative recurrence of osteosarcoma.

2. Low immunity:

Low immunity is also one of the main reasons that affects patient recovery and leads to recurrence of osteosarcoma patients after surgery. The disease itself will damage the patient's immunity, and surgical trauma and anesthesia will further damage the patient's body's resistance, causing the patient's immunity to become worse, affecting the patient's postoperative recovery, and then leading to postoperative recurrence.

3. Not paying attention to postoperative consolidation treatment:

Some patients relax subsequent consolidation treatment after undergoing surgical treatment and recovering, are not so active in taking medication, and do not pay attention to postoperative follow-up, which creates favorable conditions for postoperative recurrence of osteosarcoma.

Once osteosarcoma recurs, the patient's physical fitness will be affected to a certain extent. During the recurrence period, the patient will also have some symptoms of high fever and severe weight loss. Some patients will also feel body aches and loss of appetite.

Patients with osteosarcoma must avoid recurrence. Osteosarcoma can be treated surgically. After treatment, you must pay attention to every detail in your life. It is best to quit smoking and drinking, because there are many toxic substances in tobacco and alcohol, which can cause great harm to the human body. Patients must pay attention during the recovery period, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and participate in physical exercise appropriately.
