Hi Gunfitter400
Sorry to hear your wife requires more treatment .
I am honestly not sure . But have noticed it becoming more common . My mum has always used surgery to control her spread in the liver . Had that twice and certainly for her it took two years to stabilise the micro disease in her liver . Not sure if they find this as effective . Most procedures are research driven so you could ask about that aspect . Which procedure is more effective at long term control .
Eventually the disease did stop showing up . You could ask for a surgical consult just to weigh up her options .
Have you searched under radio frequency ablation . I would think there would be a lot of information on that for reference.

Hi Everyone,
Has anyone had experience regarding Liver Metastases.
Is it usual for some Colon Cancer Patients to have multiple sessions of Microwave Ablation to control small Metastases as they constantly appear over time, with the intention that Metastases eventually stop presenting or present less frequently over time?
My Wife has just been informed that she will require another Microwave Ablation session (session No 3), to treat 3 more Leisions.
She hasn't had a Liver Resection so far and it was explained to her that she wouldn't require Chemotherapy?
Her primary Site (Recto/Sigmoid area), has been dealt with.
I have looked On Line see if there are any Testimonials regarding people who may have experience of this, however I can't find anything.
Thanks in advance.
