    this is a difficult question

    which cannot be simply answered.  The tumor itself is uncommon, and first presentation in the head and neck area is rare.  Survival depends on a number of factors, which will need to be discussed with the treating physician.  Here's a brief read to help with understanding the situation:  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8604805

    Wishing you and your mother the best.
