How long a patient can live with metastatic lymph after gastric cancer surgery depends on the patient’s specific condition, and some patients can survive up to 3-5 years. If the patient has early stage gastric cancer and the main cancerous area exists in the mucosa and submucosa, patients with lymphatic metastasis can basically survive for more than 5 years after surgery if they choose active surgical treatment. If the cancer is in advanced stage, with extensive metastasis and multiple lymphatic metastases throughout the body, the survival time of patients is shorter. In addition, the survival time of stomach cancer patients is closely related to their dietary habits and living habits. The survival time varies greatly among individuals and needs to be determined according to the specific conditions of patients.
