Tumor resection

Tumor resection is a surgical procedure to remove a tumor, which is an abnormal growth of cells that can be cancerous or benign. The goal is to excise the tumor completely to prevent it from spreading or causing further health issues. The surgeon carefully removes the tumor along with some surrounding healthy tissue to ensure all abnormal cells are eliminated. This procedure can be performed on various parts of the body, depending on the tumor’s location. Successful resection often improves treatment outcomes and can sometimes be the primary way to treat the tumor.
