MRI showed problems with base of skull, osteomyelitis or osteoradionecrosis. I’ve to have a PICC line inserted and 6 weeks IV antibiotics. Anyone got any idea of what steps can be taken after this. My tumour was Adenoid cystic carcinoma in my orbital floor, excised 11 years ago.

  • Hi. If there is any chance this is osteoradionecrosis get referred to Vinod Patel at Guy’s. They specialise in treatment of ORN with a drug regime called PENTO. Hope this helps.
