A member asked:
What is the life expectancy of someone with lung, liver, spleen and back cancer?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Around 9 months: Your question is not clear. I suppose this is lung cancer that has metastasized (travelled) to liver, spleen, and bone? If this is the case, it is stage 4 (aka metastatic) lung cancer. Without much information given, i can say in general stage 4 lung cancer patients have a life expectancy of about 9 months.

Depends on which ca?: Life expectancy will depends on the type of the cancer, the stage, the moelcular biology of the cancer. In addition, the age and overall condition of the patient also are important. D/w your oncologist in detail.
