Invasive bowel cancer should be written as invasive bowel cancer. The survival of patients with invasive bowel cancer is related to the stage of the tumor, not related to whether the tumor belongs to invasive, ulcerative or bulging type. Usually, the 5-year survival rate of early-stage bowel cancer can reach 80%-90%, while the 5-year survival rate of advanced-stage bowel cancer is only about 10%. Invasive bowel cancer means that the tumor grows along the bowel wall without bulging or ulceration on the surface, which can often thicken the bowel wall and narrow the bowel lumen. Survival of patients with invasive bowel cancer is related to the stage of the tumor. Early-stage bowel cancer patients have a more considerable survival after surgery, which can reach 80%-90%, while late-stage bowel cancer may even lose the chance of surgery, and thus have a shorter survival period. Stage I bowel cancer refers to the tumor confined to bowel cancer, without lymph node metastasis or distant metastasis, early radical surgery treatment, the 5-year survival rate can reach 80%-90%. Stage II intestinal cancer refers to the tumor invading the plasma membrane layer and the surrounding tissues of the intestinal wall, but without lymphatic metastasis or distant metastasis. Stage III bowel cancer means that the tumor has lymphatic metastasis but without distant metastasis. These two stages belong to the middle stage of bowel cancer, and the 5-year survival rate ranges from about 40% to 70%. Stage IV bowel cancer refers to bowel cancer with distant organ metastasis, which has lost the chance of surgery and can only be treated palliatively, with a 5-year survival rate of only about 10%. If you are diagnosed with invasive bowel cancer, please follow the doctor’s advice for active treatment.
