Neurofibroma Excision

Neurofibroma excision is a surgical procedure performed to remove neurofibromas, which are benign (non-cancerous) tumors that grow on nerve tissue. These tumors are often associated with neurofibromatosis, a genetic disorder. At our clinic, we specialize in neurofibroma excision to alleviate symptoms, improve appearance, and prevent complications such as nerve damage or growth of the tumor.

Neurofibromas can cause discomfort, pain, or dysfunction, depending on their size and location. Excision of the neurofibroma aims to eliminate these issues, reducing the risk of further complications. Our expert team uses the latest techniques to ensure a safe and effective procedure, with minimal discomfort and a quick recovery time.

Benefits of Neurofibroma Excision

Neurofibroma excision offers significant benefits, including relief from symptoms caused by nerve compression, improvement in cosmetic appearance, and prevention of further nerve damage. The procedure also helps in reducing the chances of tumor regrowth.

Our skilled surgeons use precise techniques to ensure complete removal of the neurofibroma while preserving the surrounding nerve and tissue structures. This helps in minimizing the risk of complications and promotes faster recovery.

How Neurofibroma Excision Works

The procedure begins with a thorough assessment of the neurofibroma’s size and location through imaging or physical examination. The excision is typically performed under local anesthesia, although general anesthesia may be used in some cases, depending on the complexity of the tumor and its location. The surgeon carefully removes the tumor and, in some cases, may send the tissue for biopsy to ensure there are no malignancies. Post-surgery, a follow-up is essential to monitor for any recurrence of the tumor.
