What are the chances of nerve damage from lipoma removal?
callie29Aug 4, 2018
I have a 1 cm lipoma on the front of my thigh that I am thinking about getting removed but I'm worried about the complications of surgery and cutting into the skin. How deep is the incision for removing a lipoma and is there a chance I will have complications and neuropathy from a damaged nerve during the removal? Thank you!
