My uncle is suffering from oral-cavity-and-oropharyngeal-cancer (CA buccal mucosa). When we have done the biopsy doctor told that it was in an advanced stage. We cross consult with 2 more doctors. Initially, it didn't spread to lungs ( biopsy and CT scan done at same time ). One chemotherapist suggested giving 3 rounds of chemo first, then surgery. Two other doctors suggested going for surgery as it was not metastatic then. One month after surgery cancer spread to lungs. Would it be good if we could have gone for chemo first and then surgery? What are the treatments available now other than chemo as it is metastatic now.
