When is tumor resection indicated?
Resection is recommended in the following situations:
- Solid tumors with a risk of malignancy;
- Symptomatic lesions (pain, pressure, bleeding);
- Rapid growth or suspected cancer;
- Lesions affecting organ function (liver, lungs, etc.).
Stages of the tumor resection procedure
Diagnosis and evaluation
- Clinical and imaging examination: ultrasound, CT, MRI;
- Excisional/core biopsy for histological confirmation;
- Complex blood tests and pre-anesthesia consultation.
Patient preparation
- Mandatory preoperative investigations;
- Medication prescribed by the doctor (NSAIDs, antibiotics, etc.);
- Fasting: 6–8 hours before the procedure;
- Bowel cleansing treatment, if necessary;
- Full information and signing of the consent form.
Types of intervention
Laparoscopy / Endoscopy
- Minimally invasive with 1–4 tiny incisions;
- Quick recovery, less pain, and scarring.
Classic surgery
- In extensive cases, deep locations, or complex organs;
- Resection can be combined with organ reconstruction.
What happens during the operation
- Access to the tumor via incision or trocar;
- Identification and isolation of the tumor formation;
- Resection with healthy safety margins;
- Rigorous hemostasis and sutures/reconstruction.
Post-surgery recovery
- Hospitalization: 1–4 days, depending on the procedure;
- Pain control, vital sign monitoring, and blood loss monitoring;
- First steps and gradual reintroduction of food;
- Avoid intense physical activity for 4–6 weeks (as appropriate).
Post-surgery nutrition and care
- First 48 hours: clear liquids (soups, teas, water);
- The following days: easily digestible foods (rice, cream soup, chicken);
- Avoid: fats, fried foods, hard-to-digest foods;
- Optimal hydration: 1.5–2 liters/day.
Monitoring and preventing recidivism
- Medical check-up 2–4 weeks after surgery;
- Tests (e.g., tumor markers), ultrasound, CT or MRI scan;
- Recommendations for a healthy lifestyle and avoiding risk factors;
- In case of malignant tumors: oncology/adjuvant therapy (radiation/chemotherapy).
Possible complications
- Hemorrhages, infections, fistulas (depending on the affected organs);
- Lesions of neighboring structures (nerves, vessels, digestive tract);
- Risk of tumor recurrence (closely monitored).
