Wondering if anyone can shed any light. The liver surgeon are saying the spots on my husbands liver (6mm and 9mm) are too small for surgery so they are going to go with chemo first to try to cure. I’m not sure how I feel about this as everything I read suggests that chemo won’t cure and they will just come back but the nurse said that they can cure. The liver surgeon is saying he won’t touch them as too small, so we don’t really have an option. I think we were going to get a second opinion or try speak to a liver surgeon to see if they can explain a bit more as to why they are too small (what is the cut off) to operate and why they are not even offering ablation, why chemo first and is this cured patients before. Everything I read suggest surgery is the only cure for bowel cancer that has spread to the liver?
