The procedure involves the surgical excision of a 2.5 cm malignant lesion from the lip, along with two malignant skin lesions on the chest, each measuring 1.5 cm in diameter. The excision aims to completely remove the cancerous tissue to prevent further spread and ensure clear margins. Post-operative care will include monitoring for infection, pain management, and possibly follow-up treatments or biopsies to confirm complete removal of malignancy. These procedures typically require local anesthesia and may involve reconstructive techniques for cosmetic and functional preservation, especially for the lip lesion.

A hypodense mass measuring 3.3 cm in the abdomen typically indicates a lesion that appears less dense than surrounding tissues on imaging studies, such as a CT scan. This can suggest the presence of fluid, fat, or certain types of tumors, including benign or malignant conditions. Further evaluation, including additional imaging or a biopsy, may be necessary to determine the exact nature of the mass and its implications for health. It is essential to consult a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate management.
A newly identified 1 cm lesion on the pancreatic head may indicate a range of conditions, from benign cysts or tumors to potentially malignant growths such as pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Further evaluation, including imaging studies and possibly a biopsy, is typically necessary to determine the nature of the lesion. It's important to consult a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate management based on individual risk factors and clinical context.
