| This very advanced cancer of the lip is an outstanding eyesore to any passer-by. Before becoming so monstrous, the patient suffered at each meal and would hide his lesion behind a scarf in order to avoid comments. This gruff patient, who lived alone, would snub his mother when she dared to ask him why his breath smelled so foul. Therapy can but be mutilating and even with reconstructive surgery, will isolate the patient even further, if indeed he survives. |
