All pts are removed by surgery and most do not recur. Metastases are usually to lung and are notoriously hard to treat.

Surgery is so far the only cure

The only treatment I am aware of is removal of the tumour with at least 1cm margin removal.

The best treatment is removal due to how fast the tumour can grow and become aggressive

No. Only a excision with margin done as soon as posdible. When the tumor exceed 1.5 to 2 cm. More chances of reocurrence

There is no cure fir this rare cancer, only surgical intervention and follow up checks.

If you have surgery with wide margins and it doesn't spread then you are cured. If it spreads there is no known cure but some people have survived after receiving aggressive chemotherapy (AIM).
