Subungual melanoma is a malignant tumor, and early treatment is generally surgical, with good prognosis. Patients can generally survive for five to ten years, or even longer. Due to the lack of obvious early symptoms, many patients cannot detect the condition in time, and often find it only after the condition has worsened. In the late stage, surgery combined with chemotherapy is generally used for treatment, and patients can generally survive for 3 to 5 years. Therefore, early treatment is very important.
In general, subungual melanoma in the early stage can be treated surgically, and the treatment effect is very obvious. The cure rate for patients is very high. Generally, patients can survive for five to ten years after early treatment, and some patients may even survive for more than ten or even decades. However, when the disease progresses to the middle and late stages, surgical treatment alone is not enough. Chemotherapy should be combined to completely kill cancer cells, which will greatly reduce the recurrence of cancer cells and prolong the patient's lifespan. Generally, patients in the late stage can survive for 3-5 years after treatment.
Early treatment of subungual melanoma is very important. Subungual melanoma is a malignant tumor disease, and its symptoms are not very obvious in the early stage. Therefore, we must pay attention to it, pay more attention to our physical health, and go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible when we find the disease. Once diagnosed with subungual melanoma, treatment should be taken immediately, as early treatment of subungual melanoma is very effective, and the early stage is also the best time for treatment. Don't miss this period.
