Hi, from the CT report it does seem to be an advanced stage and surgery is no option.

Recurrence are difficult to deal with and our country does not have access to various trials, which might help. Kindly let us know where your mother-in-law had your previous treatment and what was the course of treatment.

Discuss with doctors regarding combination chemotherapy (Cis+5FU+Taxane) and targeted therapy.
