Hi,
[There is a lot to say here, and this responsum only begins to address it, but I thought it still worth bringing here:]
In a situation in which doctors believe that a patient will die in a short time [Rabbi Feinstein does not define 'short' here], the patient may pursue a dangerous surgery even if the odds given for its success are less than 50%.
(Rav Moshe Feinstein, Igrot Moshe Yoreh Deah 2:58)
Have a good day,
Mordechai
