Centro Médico Teknon
At Teknon tongue cancer doctors address the disease in the Surgical Oncology Department. The following diagnostic tools are used to locate tumor: PET-CT, MRI, X-ray, laryngoscope. Physicians apply chemo-, radio-, immuno-, and target therapies to destroy malignant cells.
The surgical operation is considered one of the best tongue cancer treatment options. It is used to resect small early-stage tumors. Surgeons may combine the operation with one of the therapies. Radio- and other therapy courses help to reduce tumor size prior to operation, or destroy the remnants of cancerous cells after it.
Oncologists at Teknon know not only how to treat tongue cancer, but also how to preserve patient’s quality of life. Reconstructive surgery makes signs of surgical intervention almost unnoticeable.
