The survival time of patients with advanced tumors is usually about 1 year, which is determined according to the tumor site, pathological type, treatment and complications. The survival time of patients with advanced tumors is relatively short because they have already developed lymphatic metastasis or distant metastasis to other organs, losing the chance of surgery and only being able to adopt conservative treatment. The survival time of patients varies with different tumor sites, pathological types, sensitivity to treatment and complications, such as pancreatic cancer with high malignancy, the survival time of advanced patients is shorter, less than 1 year; breast cancer is particularly sensitive to radiotherapy, the survival time of advanced patients is longer; brain tumors have impacts on other important tissues and organs, and are susceptible to complications, so the survival time of advanced patients is even shorter, only 3-6 months. The survival time of late-stage patients is even shorter, which is only 3-6 months. Patients with advanced tumors should not give up treatment, and should actively cooperate with doctors to prolong their life as much as possible.
