What Are the Rates of Pancreatic Cancer Survival?
Pancreatic cancer is undoubtedly one of the most difficult cancers for the human body to fight. It is marked by its extremely low rate of survival, though this rate can and hopefully will change in the future. Nevertheless, statistics as of the late 2000s for pancreatic cancer survival at the five-year point suggest that only about 5% are still alive, and these 5% may still be fighting the cancer. This percentage is slightly difficult to understand because it accounts for all cases, and not all cases are the same.
