Hello,
* As per my clinical experience, there are 2 steps of procedure to be followed in your case.
Step 1 includes diagnosis confirmation :
- consulting with expert consultant surgeon, who may decide the nature of
tumor and whether any
soft tissue ultrasound or x-ray is mandatory or not
Step 2 includes surgical excision after diagnostic confirmation:
- if not attached to bone, limited to
subcutaneous tissue, one can opt for the excision under
local anesthesia, which is a day care surgery, and you can return home within 5-6 hours with moderate expenses of surgery ( amount varies from center to center and surgeon`s expertise )
- if attached to bone or deeper , one may need a general anesthesia, hospitalisation for 24 hours and costly affair than above.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
