  • Welcome to the forum Lyn although I'm sorry to hear about your partner's diagnosis and for the reason you are posting. 

    I have found some general information we have about this on our website here but would recommend giving our cancer nurses a call as well as they will be able to discuss this operation with you in more detail and answer any other questions you may have. They are available Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m on their freephone number: 0808 800 4040.

    I hope this helps and that your partner's surgery goes well when the time comes.

    Kind regards,
