What are the treatments for liposarcoma?

Liposarcoma is a delicate tumor that must be treated promptly. For this disease, we can treat it through traditional surgical resection or laser surgical resection, or we can take some Chinese medicine under the guidance of a doctor.

Method 1: Traditional surgical resection can be considered for patients whose superficial lipoma affects their function, labor and aesthetics. Method: Under local anesthesia, cut the surface skin of the lipoma along the skin texture.

Use curved hemostats to separate the tumor along the tumor capsule, and clamp and ligate all blood vessels seen. Lipomas are often multi-lobed and irregular in shape, and care should be taken to completely separate the lipoma tissue with the capsule.

Use tissue forceps to lift the tumor, separate the base, and remove the tumor. After hemostasis, the incision was sutured in layers.

After the operation, you should pay attention to properly bandaging the incision dressing and pay attention to the basic hygiene of the wound. When you feel pain, you can take painkillers and other antipyretic analgesics.

Method 2: Laser surgery Laser is currently a commonly used method for treating lipoma.

1. Preparation before surgery: Laser has many uses in clinical resection, which can be surgical incision or optical stripping and resection.

Depending on the characteristics of the tumor, the skin can be cut with a micro-incision, either with a laser or a conventional scalpel. Then, the Nd:YAG laser blade can be used to enter through the small incision to cut the lipoma into lobes and remove it with forceps.

Surgical preparation depends on the size of the tumor, but must be performed under strict aseptic technique.

The commonly used venous incision kit for smaller lipomas contains 2 hemostatic forceps, 1 needle holding forceps, 1 short flat forceps, 1 pair of 5mL empty needles, 1 scalpel handle, sutures and round and triangular suture needles, etc. The dressings include gauze, cotton balls, and 1 drape.

For larger lipomas, two skin forceps, a retractor, several hemostatic forceps, and a disinfected middle and abdominal sheet should be prepared for use.
