'In general, the squamous cell carcinoma survival rate is very high—when detected early, the five-year survival rate is 99 percent. Even if squamous cell carcinoma has spread to nearby lymph nodes, the cancer may be effectively treated through a combination of surgery and radiation treatment'

A 5-year survival rate is the percentage of people who are still alive five years after being diagnosed with cancer. It's a common way to measure survival, but it doesn't mean that people will only live for five years.
