Hi
For second opinion I need your histopathalogy reports,, chemotherapy depends upon the gross look of lesion during intra-op. & also gross look of dissected organ or a part of organ having lesion, more over hystopatholgy report also extremely needed because from this it can be decided the stage and nature of carcinoma, and prognosis, in my opinion you better discus this with your onco-surgeon or chemotherapy physician they are the good judge, Get well soon be in touch with HCM.
