How long can you live with malignant tumors?

The survival time of patients with malignant tumors is mainly related to the type of malignant tumor and clinicopathological stage. Specific problems should be analyzed, and no generalization should be made. There are many different types of malignant tumors, so the survival time of patients is also different. If it is some less invasive malignant tumor, such as papillary thyroid cancer, most of them can be cured by surgical treatment and can obtain the same survival rate as normal people. However, if some tumors of higher malignancy, such as advanced liver cancer or pancreatic cancer, are grown, without further treatment, the survival time is often shorter, even only a few months or weeks, and the exact time varies from person to person. Therefore, different types of malignant tumors have different specific treatment methods. Patients should pay attention to go to the medical oncology department of regular hospitals in time after discovery and actively carry out treatment, which can help control the disease.
