Hello Doctor,
Seeking your opinion regarding a 71-year-old patient diagnosed with NSCLC favor squamous cell carcinoma (P40 diffuse positive, TTF1 negative) involving the right upper lobe. PET-CT shows a spiculated RUL lesion approx. 3.0 × 4.7 × 4.0 cm with SUV max 16.58. Mildly FDG-avid hilar/paratracheal nodes (SUV ~4.2) with some calcification noted. EBUS/TBNA from stations 4R, 7 and 11L showed no evidence of malignancy. Current staging documented as cT2bN1M0 (Stage IIB). Proposed plan is neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by reassessment for surgery.
Would appreciate guidance on:
1. Whether chemo + surgery appears the optimal curative-intent approach in this case.
2. Whether adding immunotherapy to neoadjuvant chemotherapy would significantly improve outcomes.
3. Whether current imaging/EBUS findings sufficiently support N1 staging or need further nodal evaluation.
Thank you.
Plz anyone guide me about that. What to do...
Whether to go for chemo or else. And what is the outcome after chemo
Can OSMF still progress even after quitting the habit, and will there still be any kind of cancer risk?
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.
