I was just diagnosed with multiple organ cancer...nodules in peritoneum cavity, liver, bowel,uterus,lung, pelvis. We do not know the primary cancer. Do you recommend going to MD Anderson, Sloan Kettering or the like. I am a 79 year old female who I thought was in good health.
Hello, Knowing the primary site is essential for treatment. Treatment varies from organ to organ. Site can be known by doing a biopsy from any of the nodules and doing immunohistochemistry (IOC) on that biopsy material. Both MD Anderson and Sloan Kettering are nice hospitals. Please consult a good oncologist in good hospital. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
