What is the survival rate for someone with stage 2 breast cancer?

High: Published 5-yr survival rates are 81% for iia and 84% for iib breast ca. Keep in mind this includes mortality from other causes and reflects patients treated almost a decade ago. For more info...http://www.cancer.org/cancer/breastcancer/detailedguide/breast-cancer-survival-by-stage.

Good: The 5-yr survival rate form stage 2 breast cancer is about 75-80%. This means if we look at everyone with stage 2 disease, we expect 75-80% to be alive five years after diagnosis. However, this is probability and every tumor has its own biology.
