Hi Tommy,

Just wanted to welcome you to the site as well. I know this was great resource for me as I recovered from my encounter with oral cancer. I too was stage one SCC on the left lateral tongue and had similar treatment. For me, since the tumor was very early, the partial glossectomy was enough. I'm three years out and all clear. Best of luck on your journey, may it go as well.

Cancer of Tongue, SCC early Stage 1, Dx 3/13/07, partial glossectomy 4/14/07 found no residual carcinoma and a granular cell tumor with pseudo epitheliomatous hyperplasia.
