Welcome to OCF.

Can you clarify what is going on? It seem very unusual from the way I read it. You had oral cancer 19 years ago and they grafted some arm bone to your jaw, I assume? And 19 years later you have SCC in the grafted bone in your mouth?

First, thank god it has been found and diagnosed. What have your doctors told you about treatment options? With this much time passing, it is not likely called recurrence. If it diagnosed as a new cancer, are treatment options different since the cancer is in a grafted bone?

Tell us more as there are many who can learn something from you on this. You'll find super support from the many who have been on the same trip.
