My mother has stage 1c ovarian cancer ...but there has been spillage by surgery ..... but we had it operated within 2 weeks. possibility of spreading?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ovarian ca: With the spillage- there is always a possibility of spreading however I am sure your gyne-oncologist was able to perform a very good jod to remove everything and to take sample of tissue on the pelvic and abdominal area, correct?. Following surgery, your mother is recommended to get chemotherapy with combination of Carboplatin and Paclitaxel for her stage ic. Please discuss further with her doctor.
