Hi lybrate-user just go for a simple surgery. No need for any chemo or radiation. Surgery could mean either removal of the entire tumor or just a simple stoma. However stoma would entail daily toileting by relatives and self. Our aim here would be quality of life rather than curing cancer. A complete Surgery would mean removal of the entire tumor. Surgery done via Robotic or Laparoscopy will be preferable at his age.
