Hi, it’s me again, I get lots of support on here and it really helps me. Sorry if I’m a pain with all my questions!
im 6 weeks post op maxillectomy tracheostomy removal of tumour between hard and soft palate (adenoid cystic carcinoma) radial flap to plug the gap! And neck dissection.
I have developed what looks like an ulcer the size of my little finger nail on my flap, pretty much where the tumour was removed? Anyone else had this. I sort of think it’s just one of those things as surely if the tumour was removed it wouldn’t have returned and gone through the flap in such a short space of time?
thanks, Elaine
Good evening Elaine, i dont think it would be the return of cancer but if it is causing any concerns then contact someone from your team just to make sure the flap is ok and still healthy. No need to say sorry about your questions its always better to ask and we are only too willing to try and help. Take care.
