Hi, Thanks for writing in. Every cancer is different and the spread of cancer after treatment depends on man factors including the organ involved, tumor size and grade at the time of detection and the response to treatment. In case of ovary cancer, it can spread to peritoneum, abdominal lymph nodes and liver in many agents. However, the time for spread might differ in each patient and this does not bear a linear relationship loather the tumor or the treatment. This is the reason all patients are suggested close surveillance to check for any cancer recurrence or spread in the earliest stage. As there is sign of cancer spread to liver, it is important to re stage the cancer and provide aggressive treatment. This will help control the liver spread and stabilize the condition. Please do not worry.
