Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 79 | We just got the results of the CT scan that John had at 7.5 weeks post chemoradiation. The primary site (left tonsil and area) are completely clear. All neck nodes ( they originally saw 2 but suspected 3) have disappeared expect for one which is still 1.4 cm. They called the size of the node "borderline" in that if the node was 1.5cm or larger they would schedule surgery right away.
The RO, MO and ENT have agreed that John should wait and have another scan done in a month and they will then decide on whether or not a "small neck disection" is in order.
Has anyone else had a similar CT scan result? If yes, what happened later?
