Chemotherapy must be started as soon as possible. Also, I'd suggest you start Naturopathic treatment along with it. It will aid the patient to deal with the emotional and physical trauma during and after chemotherapy, so he can tolerate it well. If you need further assistance, let me know. Happy to help.

Less than 2 cms is usually stage 1, unless nodes are positive. Hopefully you are talking about the oral cavity or head and neck region I would be able to opine better if you could send me the details. Feel free to contact me directly if you want to discuss this further.

See. Some amount of adenoid enlargement is very common at that age. Important to note that what is the problem. If open mouth and nasal sound is the only problem then try steam inhalation three times a day with some menthol in it. Otrivin nasal drops are also to be used regularly for long. Say 15 .20 days. But if she is having ear infection also, then probably she may require surgery.

My dad has a tumor in the upper and mid pole of the right kidney measuring 14 *6.9*10.5 CMS as per latest USG. 2. Likewise prostrate is also enlarged at 5 CMS. 3. The Impressions mentioned in the report include Mild Hepatocellular splenomegaly, small cyst measuring 1.7 CMS in the left lobe of liver, mass lesion in the right kidney, enlarged prostate. 4.The latest chest ray states, well defined rounded opacities in right mid zone and bilateral lower zone with a possibility of lungs metastasis. 5. He has lost 10 kgs in the last 1 year. 6. His left and right foot especially appear to be swelling now. Not sure why. 7. He wakes up 6-7 times at night to pass urine and as a result has a disturbed sleep. 8.He has been constantly having cough and pain along the lower back and spinal cord. If surgery needs to be done, how critical would that be? Life threats now versus Post surgery? Can surgery be avoided? Any effective oral medication?

Appears kidney cancer with spread to lung. PET/CT scan will show all the body parts affected with it, so that it can be analysed and managed better. Surgery is not required when there is already metastasis (spread). Oral medications are available to keep a control over the growth of tumor so that life can be extended. Please consult a qualified medical oncologist near by for further analysis and prescription.

He would need a CT thorax to confirm the size and number of metastasis. Also a bone scan would be advisable if bone pain or raised alkaline phosphate level in blood. PET CT scan can be done instead of both the above investigations. MRI brain if symptomatic.
If he is asymptomatic for the lung mets and his general condition is good and tumor is resectable and not poor prognosis on IMDC criteria (based on some blood reports and contition of Patient), then I prefer to to a cytoreductive nephrect...more
