What is the Prognosis for Patients with Local Recurrence?
The prognosis for patients with local recurrence varies:
- Early Detection: Early detection and prompt treatment can significantly improve outcomes. - Tumor Type and Location: The type and location of the recurrent tumor play crucial roles in determining prognosis. For example, local recurrence in easily accessible areas may be more amenable to treatment. - Patient Factors: Overall health, age, and comorbidities of the patient can also influence the prognosis.
