Hi, welcome to Health care magic forum.
The malignant growth might be in advanced stage, the age also might not be permitting for the surgery. In advanced malignancy, if it is cut for surgery, it flares like any thing to the whole body. The nerves to the legs may get paralysed during the process.
To take up such surgery you have to give concent that the surgeons are not responsible, if dies on the operation table also as there will be possiblity of such happenings.
Any how ask your doctor ,stating that you will be bearing the risk, and do the surgery , they may accept to do it.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery.thank you.
