What Is Aortic Cancer And Its Prognosis?
My sister goes to the oncologist Thursday after additional tests to confirm aortic cancer. I have never heard of this cancer and have gotten little even general understanding from the internet. Can you possibly enlighten me as to what it is , the prognosis (aggressive, treatment, rare, etc.)? Virginia Lanter

i also have not heard of any variety of such cancer. you should send other reports to get more information. a cancer arising from aorta may be referred to as aortic cancer. depending on its extent surgery may be done to have cure.
