Hi there ,
Thanks for your query .
Stage 2 colon cancer is still curable stage . The tumor might have invaded the nearby adjacent organs but there is no distant spread to liver as it is still stage 2.
Still surgery can be done with or without chemotherapy depending on the functional status .It would have been better if u had provided the reports of the tests so that i could have given you detailed response.
I suggest you to take a second opinion with the available reports .
