> Our consumer health information people have posed the following question:
>
> they have had someone who has been offered a surgical treatment in one of
> two Scottish hospitals. The procedure is excision of a liver tumour
> secondary to the excision of a primary colorectal lesion ( Duke C ) two
> years ago. The two centres involved are Ninewells, Dundee or the
> Western General, Edinburgh.
>
> Is there anywhere this person can find out which of the two locations is
> the centre of excellence, and what are the sucess rates for this procedure
> at both locations.
>
> We have thought of using the NHS Healthline or the Local Health Councils
> but feel they may not be the places to obtain such information. Can
> anyone suggest where this data may be obtained.

> Thanks
