Is colon cancer fatal

Answer 1

Esophageal cancer is usually not curable, although this depends on how quickly the disease is treated and how operable the tumour is. When the cancer has not spread outside the esophagus, surgery may improve the chances of survival.

Radiation therapy is used instead of surgery in some cases where the cancer has not spread outside the esophagus.

For patients whose cancer has spread, a cure is generally not possible. Treatment is directed toward relieving symptoms.
