Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I think that you should go for a PET scan to verify is there progression of tumor in abdominal cavity and peritoneum. If yes, then procedure called HIPEC may be performed. This is extensive procedure used to fight against advanced stadium of the disease.
Hope I have answered your query.
