Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

It is possible that there is a metastasis in the liver and this requires detailed evaluation. The liver lesion is to be confirmed with a FNAC or biopsy and this will prove a malignancy. If there is a small lesion in the liver then it might be treated with surgery. However a bigger lesion might not be treatable with surgery and might require chemotherapy to control the progress.

Since primary source it not known therefore doctors might suggest a PET CT scan to know any probable cancer area in the rest of the body. The kidney dysfunction is to be treated with medicines. Please do not worry.
