Frequently asked questions
Are soft tissue tumors usually cancer?
Most are benign. Rapid growth, firmness, fixation, or deeper location can increase concern and prompt imaging or biopsy.
When is biopsy recommended?
Biopsy may be recommended for larger, deeper, rapidly growing, or atypical masses—especially when results change surgical planning.
Do you remove soft tissue tumors?
Yes. The safest setting depends on size and location. Some require outpatient removal for complete excision and comfort.
