Oncology Procedures

Plastic surgery is an important complement for oncological surgery. The removal of a majority of neoplasms requires reconstructive procedures to restore not only the appearance but also function of the affected organs.

The radicality of surgical treatment and a precise planning of reconstructive surgery enable the achievement of very good aesthetic and functional effects.

Depending on the age of the patient and the scope of the procedure it may be performed under general or local anaesthesia.
