Acinic cell in parotid: what has been experience over time?

krandall50

Hello,

I am 1 year post removal of a small acinic cell cancer tumor in my parotid that was also wrapped around a facial nerve.  The surgery also took out multiple lymph nodes, which were all clear, and clipped the nerve.  That resulted in a droopy lip and seems to be healing slowly.  Now there is a band of numbness from my ear to my chin.  I feel fortunate, no other treatment needed thus far. 

I appreciate reading of other experiences with acinic cell here and see the last posts on this rare cancer were a few years ago.  If any of you are still visiting the site, could you add an update?  How are you doing over time? 

Thank you.
