Hand Tumors

Hand tumor surgery is a specialized procedure to remove abnormal growths or tumors from the hand. These tumors can be either benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous) and can arise from various tissues in the hand, such as skin, fat, muscle, bone, or nerves. The goal of hand tumor surgery is to remove the tumor while preserving as much hand function as possible.

The surgical process typically begins with a detailed evaluation, which may include physical examination, imaging studies like X-rays, MRI, or CT scans, and sometimes a biopsy to determine the nature of the tumor. Based on the findings we develops a treatment plan aimed at removing the tumor while preserving the hand's function and appearance as much as possible.

During the surgery, the surgeon carefully excises the tumor, ensuring minimal damage to surrounding structures such as nerves, tendons, and blood vessels. In some cases, reconstructive techniques may be necessary to restore the hand's function and appearance, especially if a significant amount of tissue has been removed.
