Hi there. You could try to seek an opinion from oncologist from Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute and research centre delhi. Ask your current doctor, dr. advani or the specialist at RGCIR about treatment feasibility in US. Do an online search to track good oncosurgeons abroad. You could email them your mom’s medical details and seek their opinion before making a move. I cannot comment further on this issue. Hope this helps. Take care.
