Inoperable liver metastases in colon cancer, what is the life expectancy?
Hello, what is the approximate prognosis for inoperable liver metastases? How long have you left to live?

This is a question for the treating physician.
If he does not provide sufficient information, it is necessary to request the conversation if necessary with a person who is as competent as possible.
My girlfriend had less than a year when she found it. He died of liver failure. Origin: Breast cancer, which she fought for over 20 years, and in the meantime also considered "healed".
All of possibilities school medicine and also alternative healing methods (nourishing, immune system, meditation, Asian mushrooms etc.) have not caused any healing – it has died. Hepatic coma and then end.
Not operapel does not mean that it is not treatable.
Then it comes to many factors.
How big is the tumor, he has already scattered, he will scatter, how fast he grows, etc.
Even a doctor can't say that. Especially not with so little infoimations
Metastases = scattered
Even there comes to where and how many, whether they are evil, affect vital organs etc
The only thing that wanted to say is that the cancer is already scattered is the questioner. Yes, it certainly depends, but if the liver is infested then it is critical at some point. Intestinal cancer already scattered on the liver is according to the questioner.
Get a second opinion
My father had child head-sized intestinal tumor on liver, was operated.
I'm sure that's not an easy operation. After that he had several tumors in lungs. They were all operated out.
Chemo then stopped, almost died.
And after that, over 30 years of rest, no more cancer. He died of cardiac arrest at 81.
Search DIR surgeons who want to do something
This depends on the treatment and the individual situation.
Rapidly growing and conventional therapy with chemo would mean weeks because the chemo destroys the liver. With a slow-growing tumor months, maybe even years. You will then want to operate, and the surgery will risk again, so this is not so easy.
As an alternative, the chances of my experience are better, but in this situation it would certainly be quick and consistent to act. Essentially, it is important to stop the actual cause of cancer. If one concentrates only on symptom suppression (the tumor), this does not change the disease and cannot lead to healing.
This is highly medically dangerous what they spread here!!!!!
They are not a medic and therefore have no idea what modern chemotherapy can do.
Don't give the guru who knows how it's going. This is grossly negligent what they spread here and insecure only sick people
This can be answered by the investigating doctor
The oncologist can judge that.
Some survive years despite a very bad forecast.
I think even doctors can estimate this badly, just about. I heard of cases on YouTube there was a short life expectancy and they lived longer.
Are you affected?
can't be judged as a layman without a patient file
