How Can The Inoperable Aorta Tumor Be Removed Or Treated?
I had a tumor wrapped around my fallopian tubes. A hysterectomy was performed. However, part of the tumor was wrapped around the aorta and unable to remove it. I had drastic chemo and now just watching it. It has not increased. My doctor says this is inoperable. I even went to see about the Da Vinci method. They agreed. I would not be a candidate. Do you know of any other treatment or removal of this remaining tumor?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. If you have tumor around the arota then it can not be removed by surgery. Treatment depends on type of tumor. In general chemotherapy and radiotherapy is the treatment of choice of this unresectable tumor.
Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
