When intestinal cancer has metastasized, the survival time of the patient is determined by the site of metastasis as well as the treatment measures taken and the pathological staging. If intestinal metastasis occurs, the 5-year survival time will reach about 40% if timely surgical treatment can be performed. If liver metastasis or other distant organs of the body, including lung and bone, etc. occur, the survival time is relatively short, and in severe cases, the survival time may be 3-6 months. Some bowel cancer patients with multiple metastases in the whole body will show symptoms of metastasis and failure of multiple organs in 1-2 months, and their survival time may be even shorter, and they may even have life-threatening symptoms such as coma in about 1 month. Some patients with bowel cancer who have metastasis and are sensitive to targeted drugs may also survive with tumor, and the 5-year survival period may reach more than 60%. Don’t be too pessimistic when metastasis occurs, but go to hospital in time to take appropriate treatment to improve the survival time of patients.
