LIPOMA GROWTH PRESSURE – SURGERY PHOTOS

Lipom-Entfernung Ellenbeuge

Intraoperatively, the lipoma could be precisely tracked under optimal hemostasis – and therefore optimal visibility for the surgeon – as it penetrated through the forearm fascia into the deep vascular-nerve compartment (the closed scissors indicate the direction of the lipoma expansion into the depths of the elbow).

Nach Entfernung aller Lipomanteile

The situation after removal of all lipoma components. The major blood vessels (artery and accompanying veins, arrow) are exposed and undamaged.

Wachstumsdruck druch Lipom

The previous location of the removed lipoma. A small part of the lipoma, under the pressure of growth, had wedged itself deep between the major vascular and nerve structures, ultimately causing impairment as well as symptoms of nerve irritation and deficiency.

Vollständig entfertes Lipom

The completely removed lipoma, postoperatively. It is evident that during its growth, the lipoma divided within the body, resulting in the presence of multiple lipomas (at least 4 on this side). Additionally, under the airflow from the operating room's air conditioning, the delicate lipoma capsule has dried out slightly and "shrunk." This allows for easy visual confirmation that the lipoma, along with its surrounding capsule, was completely (without residue) removed.

Lipom-Konglomerat

The same lipoma from the other (internally facing) side. Here, the growth nodule that had penetrated into the depths is centrally visible.

Lipom-Konglomerat

The removed lipoma conglomerate, viewed from the side, compared to one of our essential 11.5 cm long microsurgical dissecting scissors used for lipoma removal: The nodule is now oriented upwards, and on the left side (indicated by an arrow), satellite lipomas are arranged like a string of pearls. These satellite lipomas found at this location within the body were also histologically confirmed.
