Chemo before surgery is not serious

Chemotherapy followed by surgery does not mean that the disease is not serious. Chemotherapy

followed by surgery is a common treatment strategy, sometimes in order to shrink the tumor, so that subsequent surgery can be carried out more smoothly, but this does not mean that the disease is not serious. The severity of the disease needs to be judged by a combination of factors, not only depending on the treatment sequence.

Chemotherapy itself may be selected because of the characteristics or stages of the tumor. Even if chemotherapy is performed first, there may be serious conditions such as large tumor size, wide invasion range or risk of metastasis.

In addition, some malignant tumors are still difficult to follow up surgery after chemotherapy, and the prognosis is not necessarily optimistic, which also highlights the severity of the disease.

Therefore, it is not simple to assess whether the disease is serious by chemotherapy followed by surgery. It is necessary to understand the specific characteristics of the tumor and the overall condition of the patient in detail.
