What are the stages of Colon Cancer? If a person had 1 or 2 feet of their intestine removed and later on a 2nd surgery required the removal of the lower lobs of both lungs, what stage would the Cancer be in?

Bob it is so hard to say. If possible the treating physician would most likely have an accurate answer. My best to you and all concerned in this matter.

Bob, if there is spread of colon cancer to the lungs, it is Stage 4.
