TIPS Procedure before partial colectomy

jhitt3231
I have a colon mass that the doctors want to remove but they first want to do a TIPS procedure.  Is it worth it?

I would go with your doctors advice. If you have concerns, is it possible to get a second opinion from another doctor?

Unfortunately, there are no medical professionals here just patients.

Best of luck
