You know the intricate details and I don't. I just wanted to throw it out there.

I spoke with a good friend who's a longtime surgical oncologists familiar with the Klatskin bile duct tumor. The problem with this tumor is it doesn't present itself until late stage, even if caught early which is very rare he said it's difficult at best to successfully remove this type of tumor and in later stages it's simply not possible.
The odds between the US and UK of contracting a Klatskin tumor are 1-2 in 100,000 so they're very rare and thus the profession has little clinical data to fall back on. So in this day of medical malpractice I don't think surgeons are overly excited about performing the surgery.
In my research I've read that the THC actually turns the cancer cells on themselves and eliminates the tumor.....key words: I've read.
