Hi,
Thanks for writing into hcm.
Well curability in cancer is defined in terms of 5- year survival. For stage IIIC epithelial ovarian cancer it is around 35-40%.Thus, prognosis is not that good.
Few of the best hospitals in bangalore are HCG, Kidwai memorial, bangalore institute of oncology, global hospitals cancer institute.
i hope your granny gets well soon.
