Accordingly, the surgeon made a small incision at the tumor site, then cut out the entire tumor and its capsule, then stopped the bleeding and sutured the patient's incision.
After 40 minutes of surgery, 13 large and small tumors of various sizes (1-3cm) were removed from the patient's head, shoulders, and abdomen and taken for pathological anatomy, concluding that they were epidermoid cysts.

Sebaceous cyst (Epidermal cyst) is a benign tumor, not life-threatening, but if left untreated, the tumor can grow very quickly, affecting daily life and aesthetics. Some cases of bacterial superinfection can create inflammation, swelling, redness, leading to necrosis. This stage is often very difficult and expensive to treat. Therefore, patients should be treated early, not only for easy treatment but also to limit the risk of leaving bad scars.
Sebaceous cyst removal surgery is not a complicated technique. However, for safe and effective treatment, patients should choose reputable facilities with a team of highly qualified and experienced doctors, ensuring aesthetics and a modern one-way sterile operating room system, and good post-operative care.
InVinh International HospitalHas successfully performed surgery on many cases, helping patients recover quickly, without worrying about scarring, at a reasonable cost.
Doctors recommend that patients should not be subjective and afraid of the epidemic, delaying treatment when the body shows abnormal signs to avoid complications that may occur when coming to the hospital too late.
