What is the breast cancer survival rate?

As we all know, compared with other cancers, breast cancer has a higher chance of recovery and a more optimistic prognosis. However, every year there are still female patients who die from breast cancer. Therefore, for breast cancer patients, survival rate is a more important issue for them. What is the survival rate for breast cancer?

The survival rate of breast cancer varies depending on the degree of progression of the disease. Clinical research on the survival rate of breast cancer can generally be divided into 5-year survival rate and 10-year survival rate. This set of data will tell everyone what the survival rate of breast cancer is.

In 1999, the British Breast Cancer Research Institute published the five-year and ten-year survival rates after early breast cancer treatment on the Internet. The data show that the five-year survival rates are: 100% for stage 0, 98% for stage I, 88% for stage IIa, and 76% for stage IIb. The ten-year survival rates are: 100% for stage 0, 80% for stage I, and 62% for stage II.

Judging from the current situation in my country, the 10-year survival rate after treatment of breast cancer is: 100% for stage 0, 80-90% for stage I, 60-70% for stage II, 30-40% for stage III, and <10% for stage IV.

It is not difficult to see that in terms of the survival rate of breast cancer, the later the breast cancer is treated and the more serious the condition is, the lower the survival rate of breast cancer. If breast cancer is discovered in the early stages and received effective treatment, the survival rate of breast cancer can reach 100%.

The article explains in detail the survival rate of breast cancer, but nothing is certain and there are exceptions. However, one thing is certain, that is, early detection and early treatment of breast cancer are very effective, and basically all patients can survive. Therefore, we also hope that the relevant departments can popularize professional knowledge about breast cancer so that female friends can learn more about breast cancer.
