The doctors are considered to be the personifications of the gods, and this statement came true again when the doctors of Max Hospital in Vaishali achieved an extraordinary feat by saving the life of a 53-year-old man who battled oral cancer across different parts of the oral cavity. Swift action was taken by the doctors after detecting the cancer, and he was given proficient treatment. The doctors did their best, and the fighting spirit and determination that the patient showed pulled him out of the dark as he stood victorious against his cancer. The patient has battled oral cancer four times, and his story should become an example to many. It also highlights the importance of being aware of and detecting cancer early on. He has recovered well and has retained clear speech and swallowing abilities.

Elaborating, Dr. Sowrabh Kumar Arora, Senior Director of Surgical Oncology (Head & Neck) at Max Hospital, Vaishali, said: "Mr. Sanjeev Kumar first presented to the hospital in April 2018, where he underwent successful surgery for right buccal mucosa carcinoma. Despite a brief period of remission, Mr. Kumar faced subsequent challenges, facing two concurrent cancers near the lower jaw and right-side floor of the mouth in January 2022. Mr. Kumar's proactive approach to regular follow-up visits played a pivotal role in early detection and timely intervention, enabling the successful management of his condition. Despite facing four distinct occurrences of cancer within the oral cavity, Mr. Kumar's perseverance, coupled with meticulous post-operative care and rehabilitation, has contributed to his remarkable recovery and overall well-being.”

Awareness and early detection play a pivotal role in the treatment outcome of the patient.
