[Endoscopically-assisted lipoma removal]

Since 1994 we have been removing large capsulated lipomas which are localised in an esthetically exposed and/or functional region using endoscopically assisted technique. This technique is minimally invasive and allows optimal visualisation of the tumour during the removal. Only a small incision is required to prepare the tumour in toto with capsula. With the endoscopic control of the wound we can avoid greater haematomas, which is very important for wound healing.
