Y-90 liver cancer treatment

Posted by mudshark @mudshark, Dec 8, 2019

I recently was treated with y-90 on a tumor in my liver. I am interested in knowing of others that have had experiences good, or bad, and of long term results. I have had prior resection of the liver to remove a tumor but a new tumor surfaced in a different section. I am hoping the y-90 will prove to be a more permanent solution. Thanks

Thanks for your explanation! I don't know at the moment which treatment I'll be getting. I'm waiting to hear from the radiologist for an appointment. I imagine they are very busy and probably waiting for an approval from my insurance. I'll post again when I find out what the plan of action is.

Hi, I was in limbo about what treatment,Y90 or ablation after they found a tumor in my liver. The radiologist chose ablation. It was painful for a few days but subsided pretty quickly. I have been cancer free for almost 2 years now so I have been able to avoid transplant since my numbers are good. The radiologist was wonderful and explained everything. Best of luck to you.
