Yes, I agree with Tom. You now should ask your physicians about their familiarity with Ameloblastoma. Further, are they pushing the free flap surgery because they want this on their resume' or because this is best for you? That sounds harsh but something here doesn't sound quite right. If it's free flap surgery, then my advice would be to go somewhere where they have had a lot of experience in this area such as Mayo Rochester, or MD Anderson. Do not hesitate to ask about the surgical team's experience in this. Free flap is a really big deal requiring considerable pre-surgery model work-up and prep.
