How long can you live with ovarian cancer?

My grandmother just got diagnosed with the most aggressive type. The doctors believe they got most of it out through an operation, and they caught it in the early stages.

It depends on what stage its in and how it is progressing. It also depends on the patient's body. It can be treated with surgery. I know a few people that have had it (including a family member), and they were fine after having surgery and treatment. It could be anywhere from a few months to a year. But surgery for removal of the reproductive organ that is affected, gives you a huge chance of survival.

Don't lose hope and stay strong for your family in this fragile time. By HIS stripes, she is healed. ;)

it really depends on the staging...most people can get a few years from initial treatment, and it often comes back.

I'm really sorry about your grandmother. take care...
very sorry to hear this about your grandma - i have worked in surgery for more than 20 years & everyone's cancer spread is different but the ovary's give off hormones at the cellular level & hormones circulate throughout the entire body so the chances of the cancer cells getting circulated are very great. same with testicular cancer & other hormone producing glands. diagnosed with the most aggressive type can mean anywhere between 1-6 yrs with treatment- cemo/radiation what ever is appropiate. please make sure she is seeing an oncologist & follow his therapy plans to the "T" . best of luck as you go through these next trying years.
experience only - not an expert
I would suggest asking the doctors who did the operation, they would undoubtedly be in the best position to answer.
