The prognosis of ovarian cancer and benefits for patients

Each patient is expected to be healed of their diseases. But in reality there are many other factors that influence whether a patient could survive for 5 months, or even be able to live more than five months. Estimated life expectancy of patients a doctor can be used as payment for treatment and other decisions taken at the end of life.

Ovarian cancer patients who seek medical attention at an early stage, have a good prognosis, but still expect to live longer, perhapsalso get rid of it.

For patients who have just arrived back into the stage III or more, usually have a poor prognosis. Unfortunately, most patients with this disease detected in an advanced stage, in advanced cancer has spread to other parts of the body outside of the ovary. The spread of the disease in other parts of the body affect the functioning of the organ, other organs may be affected are: lining of the uterus, colon, lung and bladder. What is the effect, among other things, that thebodies become unable to function properly, so the balance of the body affected.

Source Wikipedia, the written question in relation to ovarian cancer, patients with ovarian cancer 5-year survival for all stages of 45.5%. If the disease is diagnosed at an early stage when the cancer has spread beyond the ovary, 5-year survival was 92.7%.

If detection is too late, and patients already in serious conditions, this situation has anegative effects for the patient. The doctor can analyze and provide an explanation for the possible continuation of the treatment and cure. The doctor will usually also notify the patient's family the possibility that the patient will recover, and other possibilities that may occur in patients. Prediction of prognosis of ovarian cancer doctors are not 100% accurate, for example, when doctors declared that "45 percent of patients die within 5 months," concluded that, based on medicalcalculation based on previous studies with patients. But in reality there are many other factors that influence whether a patient could survive for 5 months, or even be able to live more than five months. Estimated life expectancy of patients a doctor can be used as payment for treatment and other decisions taken at the end of life.
