Question
Main Symptoms: Coughing, vomiting, bloating, loss of appetite. Onset Time: Over a year. Laboratory Test Results: Not yet available, only known that an unknown object is growing in the stomach, expected results next week.
Answer
Based on the current description, the patient’s condition may not be optimistic, and it is recommended that family members prepare themselves mentally. Regardless of whether the tumor is benign or malignant, due to the patient’s age, the surgical indication is relatively low, and the postoperative survival period is difficult to determine. It is suggested to provide nutritional support to the patient during this period and make further treatment plans after the test results are available. If the tumor is benign and the patient’s physical condition is good, without any underlying diseases, early surgical treatment may be an option.
