Answers: When u have canser do u always have to have radiation or chemo theropy before ur surgery

it all depends on the type of cancer, where it is located and the size of the tumor. also the stage and how fast the tumor is growing. only an oncologist will be able to answer this question.

canser?

no, but it depends on the tumor type and its size

chemo is after your surgery.

its called cancer

If you mean canCer, no. You don't have to have chemo or radiation before surgery but most doctors now recommend it.

No. Cancer is a progressive disease which means it starts out very small (stage 1), grows larger (stage 2), begins to spread (stage 3), and grows, spreads and sends out metastatic cells (stage 4).

Treatment depends on the type of cancer and the stage of the disease as well as the overall health of the patient. So a stage 1 low grade tumor may easily be removed by surgery and no chemo or radiation recommended. However a stage 1 high grade tumor may be removed by surgery and than followed up by chemotherapy and radiation. A stage 3 or stage 4 cancer may begin with chemotherapy to determine whether the disease will respond to this type of treatment. If the cancer responds than the doctors will know they can use this type of chemo treatment after surgery to kill off any remaining microscopic cells.

Treatment for cancer primarily consists of chemotherapy, surgery and/or radiation . . . which can be used in any type of combination all during treatment for cancer. Although most common cancers already have a set protocol based on years of treatments. A protocol is a set treatment plan that has worked for other cancer patients with the same type of cancer.

That is a long answer . . the short answer is that some types of cancer, especially those in the early stages do not need radiation or chemotherapy. And some cancers are not treated with radiation . . or surgery . . if the chemotherapy works. My son has never had radiation for his disease.

Usually its after your surgery but each case is different. Go to cancer treatment centers of america! They are the best for treatment!
