liver cancer

Hi my sister had breast cancer in 2019 she the got bone cancer in 2021 she has been receiving treatment and now they have found lesions in her liver. she will never talk about prognosis but I want to know .what is the general prognosis 

  • Hello and thanks for your enquiry,

    I can appreciate that you would want to know more. 

    But it isn't possible to be very exact about someone's prognosis (outlook). It is the hospital team that are best placed to offer comment about this. Someone's outlook will depend on how much of the liver is affected, their overall health, and how the cancer is growing. Also, any treatments given may be able to slow down the cancer's progression, and extend life. Some people will respond better than others, as everyone is different.

    I hope this helps to explain,

    Best wishes,

    Vanda
