For patients with lymph node metastasis of colon cancer, the overall cure rate is about 50%-60%, of course, there are some patients with better treatment, the cure rate may be higher. If a patient has lymph node metastasis, it is judged as stage III colon cancer, and if there are liver metastasis and lung metastasis, it is advanced stage colon cancer, and the overall cure rate is obviously lower. Generally, the five-year survival rate is counted, that is, the percentage of patients surviving within five years from the time they have surgery.
