Cyst, lipoma, and lymph node removal surgeries are common procedures performed by surgeons.
A cyst is a fluid-filled sac that can develop in any part of the body. It can be removed by a surgical procedure called cystectomy. In this procedure, the surgeon will make an incision over the cyst and remove it along with its contents.
A lipoma is a non-cancerous fatty tumor that can develop under the skin. It can be removed by a surgical procedure called a lipoma excision. In this procedure, the surgeon will make an incision over the lipoma and remove it along with the surrounding tissue.
Lymph nodes are small, bean-shaped structures that are part of the immune system. They can become swollen and painful due to infections or other conditions. In some cases, they may need to be removed by a surgical procedure called lymph node dissection. In this procedure, the surgeon will make an incision in the affected area and remove the lymph nodes.
These surgeries are usually performed under local anesthesia or general anesthesia depending on the location, size, and complexity of the procedure. After the surgery, the patient may need to take pain medications and antibiotics to prevent infection. Recovery time varies depending on the extent of the surgery, but it typically takes a few days to a few weeks for the patient to fully recover.
