Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
If this is cancer that metastasized from breast then this is already spread and it should be removed in every case, however there is possiblity that other metastases exist. SO you need to do PET scan for better identification of metastases. ALso, repeated chemotherapy is definitely recommended.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
