1. Are there any risks associated with head and neck cancer surgery?

Risks include infection, bleeding, changes in speech or swallowing, and potential impact on surrounding structures. Our team takes measures to minimize these risks and ensure a successful outcome.

2. CORTISOL

The Cortisol Test measures cortisol levels in the blood to assess adrenal gland function and diagnose conditions related to hormone imbalances and stress.

No fasting is required, but follow specific timing instructions provided by your healthcare provider. Inform them about any medications you are taking.

Cortisol levels typically vary throughout the day. Morning levels are usually highest, so the test is often scheduled in the morning.

Abnormal cortisol levels can indicate conditions such as Cushing’s syndrome, Addison’s disease, or other adrenal disorders. Further evaluation may be needed.

Results are generally available within 24 to 48 hours after the blood sample is collected, allowing for prompt review and diagnosis.

3. How long does the limb lengthening process take?

The lengthening process is gradual and typically takes several months, depending on the amount of lengthening required and individual healing.
