Carefully selected head and neck tumor patients can safely undergo a wide variety of aesthetic surgical procedures. The malignancy must first be adequately treated and clinically controlled before elective surgery. Each tumor patient's general health and life expectancy must be honestly assessed prior to aesthetic surgery, because operating on an individual who cannot survive to enjoy the benefits is injudicious. Through the combined efforts of sophisticated oncology and plastic surgery, the patient survival rate can be improved as quality of life is enriched in appropriately selected and carefully managed individuals.
经过精心挑选的头颈部肿瘤患者能够安全地接受各种美容外科手术。在进行择期手术之前，必须首先对恶性肿瘤进行充分治疗并实现临床控制。在进行美容手术之前，必须如实评估每位肿瘤患者的总体健康状况和预期寿命，因为对无法存活以享受手术益处的个体进行手术是不明智的。通过先进的肿瘤学和整形外科学的共同努力，在适当选择和精心管理的个体中，患者生存率可以提高，生活质量也得以丰富。
