The 5-year survival rate is less than 10%, but there are survivors.

My cancer was papillary but de-differentiated. Mine is like anaplastic. I recently had a thoracotomy to remove cancer that had spread near the heart. It has been 5 years since my detection. They just keep removing cancer as they find it in PET scans. I have a group if you want to chat further, see the link
