A member asked:
Is a single liver met and 1 aortocaval node difficult to treat in colon cancer patient ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: The approach to solitary lesions and in this case 2 discrete sites of possible spread should be handled by resection. Depending on the pathology, the resections should be followed by chemotherapy. This is more effective then just relying on an upfront chemo approach.
