a friend has stage four cancer . it has reached his liver .they removed the tumour ,I was curious what type of cancer it might be .I believe it was removed before it reached the liver . would you be able to answer what type it could be , he does not talk about this. thank you
Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thanks for the query. It is hard to say. Reaching liver may mean that there was colorectal, stomac or some other cancer in body which can metastasize to liver. But also reaching liver may mean that this is cancer of biliary system or pancreas and that it didn't infiltrate liver locally. In every case, it is good sign that tumor is completely resected, but prognosis is still questionable and depends on tumor types you good health. Regards
