Cancer is not hereditary, but cancer has a hereditary tendency, and people who do not have cancer in their families are susceptible.

Lung cancer, intestinal cancer, breast cancer, etc., Patients with earlier tumor stages have no lymph node metastasis in the early stage, smaller tumors, and shallow local invasion depth. That is, when the tumor range is small, the patient may have residual cancer cells after surgery. If the risk of local recurrence is small, the risk of metastasis is small, chemotherapy is of little significance. There is no need for chemotherapy after surgery. Chemotherapy at this time is not necessary and will increase the patient's financial burden and side effects.

Whether patients need chemotherapy should be recommended based on clinical trials based on different tumors. For patients who are confirmed to have indications for postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy in clinical trials, if they do not receive chemotherapy after surgery, the risk of recurrence or metastasis is higher. The purpose of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy is to prevent and kill potential cancer cells, try to delay the recurrence or metastasis of cancer, and prolong the patient's overall survival.

Therefore, postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy needs to be based on different cancer types and stages. It is recommended that patients closely cooperate with doctors’ treatment under the guidance of clinical trials and based on doctor’s recommendations.
