My mother in law who is 75 was diagonised with Gall bladder cancer stage 4 two months ago. The doctors removed the gallbladder and 80% of her liver as the cancer had spread to the liver as well. After which she made frequent visits to the hospital and devloped jaundice now her jaundice is not coming down and she is in pain always. I cannot see her in pain I wanted to how many days she still have to live and be with us.
Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. Some people recover completely after liver reactions even if more that 66 % of liver is removed,however80% may be a bit more problematic and survival is definitely threatened, and liver failure may cause death from 1-3 months. I hope I have answered your query. I wish you a nice day.
