Patient: Hi doctor, I went to your specialist consultation on Feb. 7 and detected a suspected fibroma of 30*13mm on one side, and you suggested me to have a minimally invasive surgery. I forgot to ask: (1) I read online that minimally invasive surgery is recommended for fibroids less than 25mm, is mine bigger? Can minimally invasive also cut cleanly? I am afraid that traditional surgery will leave obvious scars. Is there a way to cut cleanly without visible scars? (2) How long can I fly after surgery? How long can I play badminton? A: If the lump is slightly larger than 2.5cm, it is not completely impossible to do minimally invasive surgery, but it will be more troublesome and time consuming to cut it cleanly. Although the minimally invasive scar is small, the scope of internal excision is equivalent to the scope of the lump before surgery, so it is not advisable to engage in strenuous activities immediately after surgery to avoid bleeding from the wound and affecting healing. There is no great impact on flying, and it is better to start playing badminton one month after surgery.
