When Mike had his operation the surgeon went to great lengths to reassure us that his liver was clear. Yet despite 12 sessions of chemo he now has mets to the liver! Having surgery must release it into the blood stream. I wonder if anyone has compared the results of patients who received chemo before the op as opposed to those only post op and which group did better with regards to mets or no mets?
