Hello!Read your query.
You did not mention what is the extent of the tumour and if there is any spread to the lymph nodes.
Tumors can be treated by surgical excision or/and radiation.Depending on the extent of the tumor , surgery is carried out.
There are chances of recurrence in malignancies always though the treatment will reduce the chances.
Regards.
