Hello, I am new here. My husband was diagnosed in April with Sarcomatoid Renal cell of the ureter. He had his Right kidney and ureter removed. He had been on chemotherapy of Gem/Carboplatin. 4 rounds. He just finished his 3rd round. Last Thursday he had a cystoscopy and it showed 2 new lesions. 1 and 2 cm. He will need surgery but they are holding off until chemotherapy is over because of infection risks they said. His type of cancer is extremely rare. They wanted to do Cisplatin but because his remaining kidney is stage 3 kidney disease they won’t because of the risks of further damage to it. We are relying on prayers and support from our church. Praying for a miracle.

@shejac08, I'm sorry to hear that new lesions were found. That must've been difficult news to take in. I'm glad surgery is an option.

Will your husband first complete all rounds of chemotherapy before surgery?
