Hi,I am Dr. Andrew Rynne (Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Yes, the doctor heard a crackle in my 79 year old mother. She just had surgery 18 months ago to remove two sarcoma tumors from her back area. They also removed a kidney because it was leaning on the tumor. Low grade tumors but I heard they move to the lungs. Is this true?
Hi, There are all possibilities of having secondaries of tumors spreading to other organs in the body like bones, kidneys, lungs and lymph nodes. So there are all risks of having secondaries went into the lungs. Consult cancer specialist and get investigated. Ok and take care.
