I went to Dr. Liu recently. I'm so fortunate that he's in my own backyard of downtown Denver. He seems to have a very good feel and understanding for these tumors. He didn't seem to think that my 6 cm appendix tumor that had spread into my colon and grown another 2 cm tumor was anything to worry about since the margins looked good on removal and my dotatate 68 scan was clear. I also went to highly regarded CU Health Science Center here and they recommended traditional right hemicolectomy just based on size alone and probability of spread. Just thought I'd share in case anyone else is looking! I haven't done anything yet other than removal of primary tumor.
