Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. He has hurtful cell cancer, and he has gone through surgery and radiotherapy.  If tumor is completely removed then chances of survival is high.  But he should go for regular follow up to detect early recurrence of tumor.  Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
