Precision Head and Neck Oncology MDT Program

头颈部肿瘤精准多学科手术重建项目

Head-and-neck cancer care may involve removing diseased tissue and reconstructing the resulting defect. Reconstruction can concern both appearance and functions such as speech, swallowing or breathing; its design depends on the location and extent of treatment.

About this guide

Clinical details below are in English. Ask the care team for help understanding the source documents.

What to clarify

How assessment and planning work

Before surgery, ask how the cancer operation, reconstruction, dental assessment, nutrition and rehabilitation will be coordinated. Establish which team handles airway and swallowing needs and how further treatment could affect recovery.

Before your consultation

Biopsy, imaging, previous radiation plans and current speech, swallowing or airway assessments.

Send existing records for an initial discussion. Do not arrange new tests, change medication or book non-refundable travel solely from this page. The receiving team should state which additional information is actually needed.

Evidence and limitations

Complications and recovery depend on the tissue removed and the reconstruction used. The consent conversation should address healing, infection, function and the possibility of further procedures, with realistic goals specific to the patient.

Questions to ask

How are treatment and reconstruction planned together?

Tumour control and functional recovery need coordinated discussion. Ask about speech, swallowing, breathing, dental preparation, the type of reconstruction and the sequence of surgery, radiation or drug treatment.

What should be included in my written treatment plan?

The treating team should identify the proposed intervention, alternatives, relevant uncertainty, clinical eligibility, anticipated visits, monitoring and arrangements if the plan changes after assessment. Ask who is responsible for follow-up after you return home.

Price and quotation

Ask for an itemized provider quotation after the clinical team reviews your records. The scope may depend on the exact intervention, investigations, consumables, admission and monitoring. Confirm currency, validity period and what happens if the plan changes. Medical fees are paid directly to the provider; Uwell coordination is separate.
