Thanks for the links. Yes,I should have used the word Staging. Of course at this time I have no idea about my brother's cancer staging or future treatment. Doctors can think it's Stage 1 and it could end up III or IV so I will not read the main part of the OCF until we know what's what. I learned that too much information about staging and potential outcomes prior to surgery can lead to confusion. As the site says, each cancer and it's treatment in individual. We are just going to have to wait for the path report.
Brother Dx oral cancer March 23. Invasive Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Mod Dif Anterior Floor of Mouth, Peridental Soft Tissue, Right Bony Margin. Lymph Nodes 0/56 Stage II,pT2,pN0 2.8 cm
I was Dx b/cancer 9/2007. IDC Stage2 Grade2 2.4 cm 0/8 Nodes ER+ PR+ Her-2 Rad 33 no chemo.
