Frequently Asked Questions
16. Are there any treatments that follow
surgery?
Even if the doctor removes all the cancer that can be seen at the
time of the operation, some patients may receive chemotherapy after
surgery to kill any cancer cells that are left. Chemotherapy
treatment after surgery -- to increase the chances of a cure -- is
called adjuvant therapy. (Answer continues on next
