2nd opinion: I would get a second opinion. If there is no treatment, you need to know why.. Has the lesion invaded structures that cannot be operated on? Has the cancer spread to other parts of your body? See what another specialist might say for your situation, and good luck.

Always: There are always treatments. Not always curable however. Make sure you have been evaluated by experts. Seek a second opinion at the closest university based medical center. Soon.
