Hi, dear
He has epitheloid sarcoma with multiple metastatic lesion. So it is stage 4 cancer. Surgery is not possible at this stage. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy is the treatment of choice. If it doesn't respond to treatment then regimen should be changed. But there is no any other treatment.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
