Cancer survival rates or survival statistics tell you the percentage of people who survive a certain type of cancer for a specific amount of time. Cancer statistics often use an overall five-year survival rate. For instance, the overall five-year survival rate for bladder cancer is 78 percent. That means that of all people who have bladder cancer, 78 of every 100 are living five years after diagnosis. Conversely, 22 out of every 100 are dead within five years of a bladder cancer diagnosis.
As stated, prognosis in hypopharyngeal cancer varies with the stage. The 5-year survival rate with small (T1-T2) lesions is about 60%, but with T3-T4 lesions or multiple node involvement, survival falls to 17-32%.Five-year survival for all stages is approximately 30%.owever, 50% or more of the patients who present when younger than 40 years (1-3%) have stage IV disease. Sex: Women usually present with earlier-stage disease and have a higher survival rate after therapy. Race: African Americans have a higher incidence of hypopharyngeal cancers and a 26% lower survival rate.
