Thanks to my patient for sharing his procedure and for the great conversation! He actually came in for something else to see me, and I saw the growth on his neck. He told me he was scheduled for surgery but he was not happy about being put to sleep. I told him I could do it for him, no problem, and he was so relieved and thankful. This was a large epidermal inclusion cyst. It was 30 years old with very dry contents, much like an overdone hard-boiled egg. It was so big it was causing pressure on his throat when he turned certain ways. I’m glad I could help him out.
A giant mass on the neck over the carotid artery was completely removed. So much comes out! Mr. PopZit 131126
