Hello Doctor, my mother has ovarian cancer and has completed 4 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with very good response (CA-125 reduced from 273 to 11). Her treating team is now planning interval cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC.
We would like to take an expert opinion specifically regarding whether HIPEC is truly necessary/beneficial in her case, considering the additional recovery burden and cost. Could you please help us in deciding if HIPEC would be necessary and effective ?
Thank you.
Hi my mother had her routine mammogram revealed 6.5 cm hamartoma in left breast without any symptoms. Is that dangerous, what is the treatment for that??
Hi, I'm 24 years old female. I feel a hard lump on one of my underarm. It is hard like a bone. I feel uncomfortable if I bring my arm closer to my chest. I fear of this can be a symptom of breast cancer.
Detected BONE MARROW (Multiple Mylomia), in 2016.(Near spinal cord)
Blood Test indicated 25% Plasma Cell, in 2016.
So far done this Tests 16 times, till last month.
Now it is 1 %.
Should I take that now I have been cured almost of Multiple Myloma.
No medicine since last 6 months.
( Before that took THALIX-100 : 1 Tablet /day.)
Thanks
Seeking expert opinion for a 62F with signet ring cell carcinoma of sigmoid colon diagnosed July 2025. She underwent surgery (LAR + hysterectomy + BSO) followed by chemotherapy (Dacotin + Capecitabine). Latest PET-CT Feb 2026 shows no liver, lung, brain metastasis and no residual primary lesion. However, there are FDG-avid peritoneal nodules (SUV ~7) with mild ascites, suggestive of post-op changes vs residual disease. Kindly advise on further management, chemotherapy strategy, CRS alone or CRS with HIPEC suitability or second line chemo.
