To help decide: A patient with tumor recurrence can get one opinion from his local cancer center (the one he is treated at currently), while also taking a copy of his records to another cancer center unrelated to the first one, to get a fresh opinion. He can then decide to take one path, the other path, or neither path. Each patient has unique features. Focus on quality of life, rather than mere survival.
