What is Remove foreign body?
The excision (removal) of a lesion, such as a cyst or tumor, in the skin and subcutaneous tissue. It is specifically used for the excision of a subcutaneous soft tissue abscess, or a localized collection of pus, in the skin and underlying tissues.
The procedure typically involves making an incision over the abscess, draining the pus, and removing the infected or necrotic (dead) tissue. The surgeon may use local anesthesia to numb the area before making the incision. After the abscess is drained and the affected tissue is removed, the wound is typically cleaned and closed with stitches or left open to heal by secondary intention, depending on the size and nature of the abscess.
May also include any necessary exploration of the abscess cavity, debridement (removal of damaged tissue), and any related wound closure techniques.
