Hi,
Tumor in abdomen can not be explained because if the tumor is the abdomen and spreads from lung tumor it should be stage 4 cancer. Anyway stage 3 cancer has subgroup division. Prognosis depends on that.Generally stage 3 tumor is treated with chemoradiotherapy or surgery. There is good tumor control. Consult your oncologist.
