Hi, may I know your distance of deep margin? Mine is 5mm and suggested to do radiation for better result. For myself I don't want to do as the main side effect is it would hurt my kidney. I want more opinion. Thanks

@biceto
Thank you for your response.
I'm taking few other opinions regarding the radiation, most of them suggested that its a precautionary, not that its needed.
Im more inclined towards surveillance, as i dont want to get the radiation done and bear the side effects of something which is not there.
Wish me luck. Hope all gets better but seeing your case which is similar to mine gives me hope that I should be fine.
My deep margins are 3MM with the doctor removed the periosteum layer, also that layer came negative. So it give me confidence
