Soft Tissue Sarcomas
Soft tissue sarcomas, a rare group of cancers arising in connective tissues, require precise surgical intervention for effective treatment. Our approach to sarcomas involves a thorough diagnostic process, including imaging and biopsy, to determine the tumor’s type and stage. Surgery is the cornerstone of treatment, aiming to remove the tumor with a margin of healthy tissue to ensure complete excision. Depending on the tumor’s location and size, reconstructive techniques may be utilized to restore function and aesthetics. We coordinate with oncology specialists for adjuvant therapies, such as radiation or chemotherapy, tailored to your specific needs for the best outcomes.
Lipomas and Cysts
Lipomas and cysts are common benign tumors that can occur anywhere in the body, often presenting as soft, movable lumps under the skin. While usually not harmful, they can cause discomfort or cosmetic concerns. Surgical removal is straightforward and typically performed on an outpatient basis using local anesthesia. Our goal is to minimize scarring and discomfort during the procedure, ensuring a quick recovery. We discuss the indications for removal, including size, symptoms, or cosmetic impact, and provide comprehensive care from initial consultation through post-operative follow-up, focusing on your comfort and satisfaction with the outcome.
Wound Management and Reconstruction
Complex wounds, whether from injury, surgery, or underlying medical conditions, require specialized care for proper healing. Our expertise in wound management and reconstructive surgery includes advanced techniques to promote healing, prevent infection, and improve functional and cosmetic results. Treatment may involve debridement, skin grafts, or flap surgery, depending on the wound’s severity and location. We provide personalized care plans, integrating wound care best practices with innovative treatments to enhance healing. Our multidisciplinary team supports you through the healing process, offering nutritional advice, physical therapy, and counseling to address all aspects of recovery and rehabilitation.
Reconstructive Surgery After Tumor Removal
Following the removal of malignant or benign tumors, reconstructive surgery plays a crucial role in restoring form and function. Our approach considers the best reconstructive options based on the surgery’s extent and your specific needs, including flap reconstructions or prosthetic implants. We aim to achieve results that not only address the physical impact of tumor removal but also support your emotional and psychological recovery. By closely collaborating with oncologists and other specialists, we ensure a coordinated treatment plan that maximizes aesthetic and functional outcomes, helping you move forward with confidence and improved quality of life.
