Excisietherapie

Excisietherapie, also known as surgical excision or simply excision, is a medical procedure involving the complete removal of diseased or abnormal tissue. This can range from benign skin lesions like moles and cysts to malignant tumors. The primary goal of excisietherapie is to eliminate the problematic tissue, preventing its further growth, spread, or recurrence. The procedure typically involves a surgeon making an incision around the affected area, carefully dissecting it free from surrounding healthy tissues, and then closing the wound, often with sutures. The removed tissue is usually sent for histopathological examination to confirm its nature and ensure complete removal. The specific technique and extent of excision depend on the size, location, and type of the tissue being removed. Recovery time varies based on the size and complexity of the excision, with smaller procedures requiring minimal downtime and larger ones potentially necessitating a longer healing period and rehabilitation. Excisietherapie is a fundamental treatment modality in various medical specialties, including dermatology, surgery, and oncology.
