In a significant turn of events, Subrata Roy, the patriarch of the Sahara India family, bid farewell at the age of 75. His demise, occurring at 10:30 PM on a Tuesday night, marked the end of a prolonged battle with illness. Admitted to Mumbai’s Kokilaben Hospital, Roy, who was out on bail from jail amid the Sahara-SEBI controversy, succumbed to metastatic malignancy, a form of cancer that spreads across various parts of the body.
Decoding Metastatic Malignancy
Metastatic malignancy, a grave condition, involves cancer cells spreading from their original site to other parts of the body. This can occur through direct invasion or the bloodstream. Once cancer cells metastasize, they can form new tumors in affected areas, leading to various symptoms and complexities.
The Grim Reality of Metastatic Malignancy
The most common cause of death related to cancer is metastatic malignancy, accounting for an estimated 90% of cancer-related fatalities. The treatment of metastatic malignancy depends on the type of cancer, the extent of its spread, and the individual’s overall health.
Challenges in Treatment
Treatment becomes increasingly challenging once cancer spreads to multiple areas of the body. Doctors typically strive to mitigate the side effects of the disease.
