question: My friend was diagnosed with cancer of the rectum last week that has metaatasised to both lobes of the liver. He is meeting the MDT on Tuesday (with me) and a surgical consultant mentioned that he will have chemo before anything and that cancer of the liver found in both lobes is not usually operable. The liver team will now have met to discuss their view. Is it the case, if the chemo shrinks the liver cancer, that he can have an operation?
