Successful Treatment of a 20-Year-Old Epidermoid Tumor

A patient recently presented to Dr. Abhishek Das's Oncology OPD at Heritage Institute of Medical Sciences, Varanasi, with a chief complaint of swelling that had been progressively increasing in size over the past 20 years.
Dr. Das successfully treated the patient with a submental incision, removing the tumor, which measured 8×5 cm. Final pathology reports confirmed the diagnosis of an epidermoid tumor.
One of the most rewarding aspects of treating patients with benign tumors is witnessing the profound impact on their confidence and quality of life. For years, patients often suffer in silence, struggling with low self-esteem, social anxiety, and feelings of self-consciousness.
This patient's transformation was nothing short of remarkable. Just one week post-discharge, she returned for follow-up with a beaming smile and renewed confidence.
Dr. Das's expertise in head and neck surgery has once again changed a life for the better. Cheers to the power of surgical intervention in restoring hope, confidence, and smiles!
