Sinus Cancer Treatments

Treatment planning for patients with sinus cancer largely depends on the location and extent of the tumor. For instance, a person whose sinus cancer is still in the early stages will require a different treatment plan than someone whose cancer has reached an advanced stage. Even though sinus cancer treatment varies according to individual, most patients require surgery and postoperative radiation. Chemotherapy and/or various other procedures may also be necessary for treatment.

Sinus cancer treatments can be extremely costly. Those who develop the disease as a result of wood dust exposure may be entitled to reimbursement for their medical costs and more. If you or a loved one has a history of wood dust exposure and has been diagnosed with sinus cancer, please contact us today for a free case evaluation with an experienced and proven personal injury attorney.

Treatment Options

Surgery is usually necessary to remove the tumor. In cases where the tumor is deemed inoperable, sinus cancer treatment may involve cryotherapy (freezing the tumor with liquid nitrogen) or electrodissection (burning the tumor with an electrical current).

Radiation therapy is often used after surgery to destroy damaged tissue and stop the growth of malignant cells.

Chemotherapy involves the use of potent drugs to kill cancer cells. The drugs are administered either orally or intravenously and may cause severe side effects such as hair loss, weight loss, nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, and general fatigue.

After sinus cancer treatment, patients are seen at regular intervals by their doctor for the next two to three years. As with many other types of cancer, sinus cancer is less likely to recur in patients who have been in remission for at least two years.

Getting Help

You may be entitled to compensation for your injury and losses.

Please contact us today for a complimentary consultation with a caring and effective personal injury attorney who can evaluate your case, inform you of your legal rights and options, and ensure you get the money you deserve to help defray the costs associated with sinus cancer treatment.
