A member asked:
Can vaginal cancer be cured in every woman over the age of 80 who has a disease like diabetes if treated with the first symptoms of vaginal cancer?

Not in EVERY one. Nor should it be tried. Depending on the type cancer it is other things that she has may get her first so the risk of surgery say may not be worth it. Discuss with a Dr in Singapore who knows more about her whole picture and risks. She and the team need to discuss her risks and benefits for someone like her who lives in Singapore. Then she can decide what to do.

No, a thorough goals of care discussion should take place with pros and cons for each treatment modality. Prognosis should also be discussed. Statistics may be deceiving, nothing is 100% in medicine.
