Suggest Treatment For Tumors In Hip Bone When Diagnosed With Uterus Cancer
Question: Hi MY MOM WAS SUFFERING from hip pain and after MRI she came to know that she has two tumors in her hip bone ..a year before she was diagnosed uterus cancer and went for surgery after that she was absolutely fine ..but suddenly now came to know about these two tumors. Can you please check report suggest?. And doing by MRI can we know whether the tumor is cancerous or not?
Brief Answer:
PET scan and biopsy from bone
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I have gone through your reports.
MRI abdomen and pelvis suggest spread of cancer to bones such as right sacral ala and deep left iliac region lymph nodes.
Uterus cancer in general does not spread to bones.
I would advise you to do a PET scan.
There may be a second primary source of cancer which has spread to bones and left iliac lymph nodes
You must do a biopsy test from the lesion in her sacral ala bone to find the primary site of tumour and then only treatment can be planned.

Do you mean until we give radiotherapy and chemotherapy her life span can be increased and if not how long can patient on this stage can survive.
If I will get her in USA it can make difference? Is there any new technology that can help her out. Please advise.
