Any idea what didn't work? I have gone from borderline resectible to resectible after 10 sessions of FOLFOX. The surgeon advised that the surgery would require repair of the vena cava and wanted me to continue with chemo to optimize. Chemo has been fine. My surgeon is Dr. William Jarnigan. I love the care I have gotten so far at MSKCC. One gets expert treatment and caring as well.
