Hi, all, my mum was diagnosed with bowel cancer last year, she had ELAPE surgery and they got it all, but over a distance of 1.5mm the margin was only 0.5mm. Now they have offered her adjuvant chemo to reduce the risk of recurrence or spread. It was classified as T3N0, on original MRI there was one enlarged lymph node away from the original area but she had short course radiotherapy and they thought it could be inflammation from that. They said after the last MRI that seems to have shrunk again and at her post surgery review they said there was no lymph node involvement. She doesn’t want chemo, but needs to make a decision. Does anyone have any experience or opinions? Thanks
