A member asked:
If a person had a type of cancer found early at stage 1, successful surgery and determined it did not spread. could cancer then reappear in the body a year later after several clear check ups? even after they found it had not spread initially?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, unfortunately. Vicious disease, the oncologist remains your best reference and comment on the above sequence of events, not common, but definitely seen in practice.
