Diagnosis With Ovarian. Had Chemo And Full Hysterectomy. Cancer Will Be Back?
my sister was dianoized with grade 3 ovarian , she had several sesions of chemo then a full hysterectomy followed by more chemo. As of now she is in remission. She will go and get checked out every three months, unless the cancer comes back inbetween times she has been told it will come back. Roughly how long does she have

Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for the query.
it will probably come back if this was grade 3 and there was infiltration of surrounding structures. But it is hard to predict how long will she live. if there is no any sign of recurence at this point,then this is very good sign and she may live even several years. She just need frequent follow up.
Wish you good health. Regards
