Tumor removal is a surgical procedure aimed at excising a tumor from the body. This can involve cutting out the tumor along with some surrounding healthy tissue to ensure that all cancerous cells are eliminated. The surgery can be performed on various parts of the body, depending on the tumor's location, such as in the breast, brain, or lungs. After the tumor is removed, the tissue is often sent to a laboratory for analysis. This helps determine whether the tumor was benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Successful tumor removal can lead to improved health outcomes and may be part of a broader treatment plan that includes radiation therapy or chemotherapy.
