How many years can you live with a 2cm liver nodule?

Liver nodules can be categorized into benign and malignant liver nodules, and it is impossible to accurately determine the patient’s remaining life cycle based on 2cm of liver nodules alone, so the patient needs to improve liver ultrasound, liver cancer tumor markers and other tests first. 1. Benign nodules: benign liver nodules are usually regular in shape and develop slowly, which will not affect the normal life of the patient, so there is no need to worry too much, and patients need to follow the doctor’s instructions and observe closely. 2. Malignant nodule: malignant liver nodule develops faster, which seriously affects the function of liver and may invade other tissues and organs, if not treated in time, it will seriously affect the normal organ function of the patient, and then affect the patient’s life and health. If it is early liver cancer, the 5-year survival rate after surgery can reach 70%. Liver nodule 2cm needs to be examined by relevant tests, such as liver ultrasound, abdominal CT, liver cancer tumor markers, etc., to determine whether it is benign or malignant, and then formulate a suitable treatment plan to treat it, and make an accurate judgment on the remaining life cycle of the patient by combining the effect of specific treatments and the patient’s condition.
