Stomach cancer is a high incidence of cancer, in recent years, more and more people have stomach cancer, stomach cancer is still a cancer that is easy to recur, many stomach cancer patients will die of recurrence.
Stomach cancer is a malignant tumor of the digestive tract system with a high incidence, and surgery is the most common treatment, but after surgery, there is a relatively high recurrence rate, especially within two years of surgery. Even if the surgery is very successful and the tumor is completely removed, there is still a possibility of new stomach cancer. About 80% of stomach cancer patients will recur within two years after surgery, which is a high number and requires a high degree of vigilance.
The reason why stomach cancer is easy to recur is related to many factors.
The first factor, improper surgery and incomplete operation, resulting in a small amount of cancerous tissue or metastatic lymph nodes left in the abdominal cavity that cannot be detected by the naked eye, providing conditions for recurrence.
The second factor, which was found to be at an advanced stage, had already metastasized and could not be cured even with surgery.
The third factor is the patient's immunity factor, the patient's immunity is relatively poor, the resistance is relatively low, even after the operation, the operation is successful, it will also have a relatively high recurrence rate because of the decline in immune defense function.
The fourth factor is that there is no adjuvant chemotherapy, some stomach cancer patients need adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery, but some patients are afraid of the side effects of chemotherapy, so they refuse chemotherapy, which will also cause cancer recurrence.
Patients with gastritis should be reviewed regularly after surgery, and their physical condition should be observed at all times to see if there are symptoms of postoperative recurrence. The symptoms of recurrence after stomach cancer surgery are more obvious, and there will be a lot of discomfort. There will be vomiting, nausea and other symptoms, feel loss of appetite, rapid emaciation of the body, fever.
