How long can someone with stage IIB pelvic cancer live?

Patient's question:

A colleague has recently been experiencing abdominal pain, irregular menstruation, and a strong odor in her vaginal discharge. She also frequently suffers from lower back pain. A hospital examination revealed that she has Stage IIB pelvic cancer. How long can someone with Stage IIB pelvic cancer typically live?

Doctor's answer:

If it can be detected and successfully treated, many years of latent precancerous lesions in cervical tissue, timely detection and treatment of cervical lesions, can block the development into cervical cancer. The treatment effect of early cervical lesions is much better than that of cervical cancer. The 5-year survival rate of cervical invasive cancer is 67%, while the cure rate of early cervical cancer can reach 90-92%, and the cure rate of cervical intraepithelial cancer can reach 100%.
