Greetings . . .

I am not a physician. I am aware of a non-surgical therapy called embolization therapy wherein an interventioanl radiologist can identify the blood vessels supplying the "tumor," and block them off. I'm sure this procedure should be available to you at a major teaching institution.

Good luck
