About Tumour Excision

Tumour excision is a precise surgical procedure performed by a surgical oncologist to remove a cancerous or potentially cancerous growth (tumour) from the body. The goal is to completely excise the tumour along with a margin of surrounding healthy tissue to ensure all cancer cells are eradicated, which is crucial for preventing recurrence. This procedure is tailored to the tumour's type, size, location, and stage, and may be performed using open surgery, laparoscopy, or robotic-assisted techniques. It often serves as a primary treatment and may be combined with other therapies like chemotherapy or radiation. The surgery aims to cure the cancer, relieve symptoms, and improve the patient's quality of life and long-term prognosis.

PATIENT REVIEW

Vihaan Nair, a 42-year-old software engineer...

Vihaan Nair, a 42-year-old software engineer and father of two, first noticed a persistent, painless lump in his neck while shaving. Over three months, it grew steadily. A fine-needle aspiration biopsy confirmed a diagnosis of papillary thyroid carcinoma. His surgical oncologist, Dr. Mehta, recommended a total thyroidectomy with central neck dissection to remove the tumour and affected lymph nodes. Vihaan was terrified, not for himself, but for his family's future. The surgery lasted four hours and was successful, with clear margins. Recovery involved managing calcium levels and starting thyroid hormone replacement. A follow-up radioactive iodine scan showed no residual disease. Emotionally, Vihaan moved from a state of quiet dread, feeling he had let his family down, to immense relief and a renewed focus on his health. He now sees the scar as a mark of survival, a reminder to cherish each day.
