There is no fixed value for how long the ovarian tumor can live after resection, it is related to the patient’s condition, benign tumors will not affect the life expectancy; malignant tumors can survive from a few months to a few years.
1. Benign ovarian tumors: most of them are plasma cysts or chocolate cysts of ovary, which are not invasive to the surrounding tissues, and can be cured by surgical resection, with good prognosis, and will not affect patients’ life expectancy.
2. Ovarian malignant tumor: the survival time of patients after surgical resection is related to the stage of the tumor. Early stage patients can survive for several years after surgical resection of the lesion and timely radiotherapy; intermediate and late stage patients can’t be completely resected by surgery, so they can only slow down the development of the disease and alleviate the pain, and the prognosis is worse, and they can only survive for a few months sometimes.
When patients find ovarian tumors, it is recommended to seek timely medical treatment, improve relevant examinations, clarify the cause of the disease under the guidance of the doctor, and actively target treatment to avoid delaying the condition, so as to improve the quality of life.
