A member asked:

What is the prognosis of adenocarcinoma?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends on stage: Depends on several factors. One of them is stage, which basically describes if the cancer is local or how far its spread. Also the primary source of the cancer (pancreas vs lung for example) also leads to different prognosis.
