Dear Sir/ Madam Thanks for your query. A satellite cancer is a tumor around the primary tumor (not farther than 1 inch) and has come from the primary tumor only. A micro-metastsis is a more scientific term. It denotes a tumor away from the primary tumor although originating from the primary itself. It is not detected at the time of removal of primary tumor by any modality because of its very small size but grows on later in life. Exact diagnosis depends upon matching of tumor characteristics with the primary. None can deny that she can have more tumor in future. They may or may not represent part of primary tumor. About the possible chances, best is to discuss with your pathologist & oncologist. Sincerely Sukhvinder
