My dad’s going through this right now. Whipple May 2023 , one month shy of two year remission and now likely liver cancer. One small mass. Pet scan was clear last month. The spot on the liver was discovered on an ultrasound when they found out his portal vein to the liver had a clot.

We’re waiting for the dna test to come back and see what treatment if any.

Hello @mn86az and welcome to Mayo Connect. I am sorry to hear of your dad's recurrence of cancer. I was wondering if your dad had any other treatment following his Whipple.

How is he feeling? Has he experienced any weight loss or problems with his appetite?

@mn86az, as @lindabees posted, there are several treatment possibilities for liver cancer and liver metastasis. Did you dad complete further testing and find out what next steps are best for him?
