Hi

my english not enough explain my father's position but I want explain because we need help to find clinic for this type of cancer in europe or usa.

5 years ago(2001), my dad diagnosed neuroendocrine tumors of pancreatic(not adeno carsinoma), he had whipple operation then the doctor advise my father to use sandostatin then after 2 years(2003) we learned that tumors spread to his liver and my father had another operation to remove these tumors from his liver,ration he has been using sandostatin. 5 days ago my father has been checked by his doctor and get tomografy and the doctor said my father ' there were another tumors(these names neuroendocrine tumors which are low growing) and we must remove these tumors from liver again like 2001'th operation.next monday my father is going to get operation again because of these tumors. This will be third operation. I think this operation is going to be last because After every liver operation my father liver get damaged and smaller. After next monday operation these tumors will be exist again we have not much chance to solve this problem. Do you know new treatment, clinic or if someone has been diagnosed by this this type of cancer?

Note: my father phsycally very good he is doctor and working,we want him to live us for long time. please help
