  • Your survival depends on your surgeon taking precautions to stop his cutting spreading the tumor. This surgeon does not appear to be taking those precautions. There is a British surgeon that has nearly 100% alive after 5 years by being fastideous about spread.

    

  • @grantukip It is nonsense. 100% 5-year survival can be achieved if surgeon operated only colon cancer patients with stage I. By the way it is easily manageable operation. Class of surgeon appears for radical fulfillment of local advanced cancer, but there will never be 100% 5-year survival.

  • @Kshivets002 what do you mean by 100% 5-year survival. if the patient is stage 1 and has no sign of metastasis. will it still need to undergo chemotherapy or alike treatment.

    Thank you

  • @antonbriz I never add adjuvant chemotherapy for colon cancer patients with stage I after complete (R0) colonectomy. 5-year survival for these patients are 100%. That means these patients are completely cured and their survival is the same as healthy people.

  • I am 27 years old and I have a colon cancer.. What are my chances? thanks... Will I live long?

  • @33rdsseaypDexter it depends on the stage and completeness of surgery procedure

  • Unique and simultaneously universal surgeon!

  • General 5-year survival of colon & rectum cancer patients after complete (R0) surgery is 76%, 10-year survival - 64%. Postoperative 30-days mortality after hemicolonectomies is 0.3%, after rectum extirpation - 0.5%.

    I always perform radical procedures for colorectal cancer patients with distant metastases in good physical conditions (metastasectomies in liver, lung, etc) and some patients lived more than 15 years after surgery.

  • @RMJ92 Patients with early colon cancer do not have any symptoms. Here is very important to perform fibrokolonoscopy with biopsy. In the presence of cancer - a simple operation hemicolonectomy (rectum anterior resection) with 100% 5-year survival.

  • @Kshivets002 I love you sir. You make life better for other people. Remember that.
