At least four hypermetabolic liver lesions involving segment II,VII and VIII compatible with metastatic disease.2. Two intensely hypermetabolic soft tissue nodule deposits in therectovesical pouch are compatible with metastatic diseaseThe findings, conclusions and recommendations within this report donot replace the initial findings, conclusions and recommendationsmade at the facility where the study was performed based upon theimaging and clinical condition at that time. Comparison with theprior report and clinical history is necessary. The provided imagesmay or may not represent the native source data set and thus maycontain changes that may lower the accuracy of this second-opinioninterpretation..SURGERY 7/1/2024Colonoscopy 5/29/2024Bone scan 5/22/2024CT AP OSH 5/7/2024CT AP 12/28/2023ASSESSMENT AND PLAN:Alexander R Towell is a 49 y.o. Non-Hispanic male with metastatic small bowel adenocarcinoma with liver and pelvis metastases who presents for second opinionMetastatic Terminal Ileum Adenocarcinoma, MSS, RAS WT, with liver and pelvic metastases- I reviewed available records per epic prior to the visit- I also reviewed records sent by patient through the portal after the visit and summarized and outlined as above- I have reviewed the PET scan images noting at least 4 liver lesions and also uptake in the rectovesical region of the pelvis concerning for extrahepatic disease- I have reviewed his TEMPUS XT and XF noting no RASS alterations, MSS and a TP53 alteration also seen in the tumor and blood- With the limited data during the visit, we recommended proceeding with an MRI abdomen and Pelvis to assess fully these liver lesions. We also had his PET scan from outside consulted as above.- Unclear if HAI pump therapy appropriate for him as he has pelvis disease. I would like to review his MRI imaging once available and refer him to our colorectal surgeons and hepatobiliary/transplant surgeons to assess resection of both pelvis disease as well as liver disease, as well as options for possible locoregional therapies to the liver, including ablation, Y90, TARE, SBRT.- At this point, he is to continue his current systemic therapy locally.All of his questions were answered. He understands and was in agreement with the plan of care. He knows to call the office in the interim with any symptoms, questions, or concerns.Benjamin R.
