RUKSIN, Oct 11: The doctors from CHC and First Referral Unit (FRU), Ruksin successfully conducted a Facio-Maxillary surgery upon a patient to remove oral tumor.
‘Pleomorphic Adenoma’ or mouth cancer is a common benign tumour in the salivary gland. The patient is under recovery stage now.
Medical officer-in-charge Dr Kadum Jonnom said surgery was conducted smoothly within a short period.
