Survival period of bladder cancer is not absolute, if early detection and early treatment can be achieved, the survival period can be completely prolonged and even reach cure. The so-called bladder cancer survival less than 5 years is mostly due to the fact that the tumor has already reached the advanced stage when it is found, and the tumor has already metastasized to other organs.
Survival period of less than 5 years for bladder cancer is mostly due to the fact that the disease is found late and has already progressed to the advanced stage, at this time, it cannot be resected by way of surgery, and it can only be treated by way of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, which can reduce the pathological stage and the size of the tumor, so as to achieve the purpose of treatment.
If the effect of radiotherapy and chemotherapy is not good, it is generally difficult to prolong the survival period, so the survival period is usually not more than 5 years. Patients with advanced bladder cancer can also be transferred to other organs, such as liver and kidney, and suffer from symptoms of systemic organ failure.
To sum up, we should pay attention to regular physical examination in our life, and pay attention to hematuria and bladder irritation without obvious triggers, and consult doctor as early as possible for early detection and early treatment in order to get a good prognosis.
