two years after hysterectomy my mom got lesion in liver will this go away on chemotherapy
hi I have seen the reports attachment removed to protect patient identity ovarian cancer recurrence is classified normally as platinum sensitive or platinum resistant since it is more than six months from initial treatment would be classed as platinum sensitive so the treatment options would be carboplatin alone three weekly or carboplatin plus paclitaxel three weekly sometimes four weekly since ca125 is a good surrogate marker you can monitor it every two months and scan after four cycles yes it is serious but it all depends on the degree of response to chemotherapy treatment is not curative but to keep cancer under control and to give two years disease free interval there is a good chance of response surgery is not an option no specific diets have shown to be beneficial
