Your Treatment Options for Mass Removal

At Synergy Health Partners, we offer both non-surgical monitoring and advanced surgical removal techniques. Our board-certified hand surgeons work with you to determine the best approach based on your mass characteristics, symptoms, and lifestyle needs.
  • Board-certified hand and upper extremity specialists
  • Advanced diagnostic imaging and biopsy capabilities
  • Minimally invasive surgical techniques when appropriate
  • Comprehensive pathology analysis for accurate diagnosis

Non-Surgical Treatments

Start With the Least-Invasive Options

Most patients improve without surgery. Our team takes a conservative-first approach with treatments designed to reduce pain, improve strength, and prevent future flare-ups.

Non-Surgical Hand & Wrist Treatments

  • Observation and Monitoring For small, asymptomatic masses that appear benign, we may recommend careful monitoring with regular examinations. This approach allows us to track any changes while avoiding unnecessary surgery.
    • Regular clinical examinations
    • Serial imaging when indicated
  • Activity Modification Temporary adjustments to daily activities can help reduce symptoms and prevent irritation of the mass. Our occupational therapists provide guidance on ergonomic modifications and adaptive techniques.
    • Ergonomic workplace adjustments
    • Protective splinting or padding
  • Anti-inflammatory Treatment For masses causing inflammation or discomfort, oral anti-inflammatory medications or topical treatments may provide symptom relief while you consider surgical options.
    • Oral NSAIDs for pain management
    • Topical anti-inflammatory preparations
  • Diagnostic Biopsy When the nature of a mass is uncertain, a needle biopsy or small tissue sample can provide crucial diagnostic information without requiring complete surgical removal.
    • Fine needle aspiration
    • Core needle biopsy

Many patients find peace of mind through careful evaluation and monitoring, with about 30% of benign masses requiring no immediate surgical intervention.

Surgical Hand & Wrist Procedures

  • Excisional Biopsy Complete removal of smaller masses while obtaining tissue for pathological analysis. This outpatient procedure provides both treatment and definitive diagnosis in a single step.
  • Wide Local Excision For larger or concerning masses, we remove the growth along with a margin of healthy tissue to ensure complete removal and reduce recurrence risk.
  • Tumor Resection with Reconstruction Complex masses requiring extensive removal may need tissue reconstruction using local flaps, grafts, or tendon transfers to restore optimal function and appearance.
  • Minimally Invasive Mass Removal Using specialized techniques and smaller incisions, we can remove many masses with reduced scarring and faster recovery times while maintaining excellent outcomes.
Star
Over 95% of our patients experience complete resolution of symptoms following surgical mass removal, with most returning to normal activities within 2-4 weeks.

What to Expect During Mass Removal Treatment

Your hand specialist will examine the mass, review your symptoms, and may order imaging studies or biopsy to determine the best treatment approach.

2

Treatment Planning

We'll discuss your diagnosis, explain all treatment options, and develop a personalized plan that addresses your specific needs and concerns.

If surgery is recommended, the procedure is typically performed as an outpatient with local or regional anesthesia, lasting 30-90 minutes depending on complexity.

4

Recovery and Follow-up

Post-operative care includes wound management, gradual return to activities, and pathology results review to ensure complete treatment success.

5

TB
Kind, forthright, helpful
TH
Great staff, professional and friendly, great doctor, all-around excellent experience for me
SH
Expected to see Dr. Bohm and wanted to discuss new issue; but saw PA (which is fine) and was asked about an old injection I had back in August
SB
I have not rarely worked with a physician who has it all--expertise, patience, great bedside manner, with attention to detail. I've said in the past and many times since that I believe he saved my hand post severe wrist fracture. Most recently, we talked about some numbness in that thumb, no pain, just annoyance. He explained what likely is the cause and my treatment options while leaving it totally up to me. His staff is also great
SM
Dr Kyle was so great. He helped me with out having to have surgery. His staff could communicate more.
SG
Dr Bohm is awesome! I was fortunate enough to be in the team’s office for a follow up with his colleague. That Dr (Kassa) noticed an ace bandage on my right hand/wrist and inquired about the injury. I explained to him that I was in extreme pain and was planning to see a specialist (different office) and the soonest I could get in was 1/12/25. He immediately said “No, we’re going to get you taken care of right now) they DID! I not only got to see Dr Bohm, he ordered X-rays, gave me a cortisone injection and made sure the meds I was prescribed were aligned with the plan of treatment he came up with on the spot! After the X-rays Dr Bohm sat with me to review them and he took his time to make sure I understood my diagnosis what that meant and all treatment options available to me. I was thoroughly impressed with his knowledge/ability & willingness to take the time to do that so articulately. I went to that office for a follow up regarding back/neck injections, which are great! To having a new hand specialist and being taken care of on the spot. When just hours before I was pacing the floor at home contemplating going to the ER. A place we all know would have done nothing but waste hours of my life. I couldn’t be more thankful to the people at this office and especially Dr Bohm. If you have the need for this type of Dr or any other Dr honestly, don’t waste your time looking elsewhere, this place is truly amazing. Filled with not only Dr’s but a staff that truly cares about the patient. That’s right, a Dr’s office full of people that care about there patients. It’s amazing to finally have one of these back!
RM

RD
Very nice. Understanding
MF
Check-in staff did an awesome job helping me set additional appts and was super friendly! Dr. B was helpful as always and a pleasure to see. It did seem like the MA who brought me back may have been having a bit of a bad day. While she was proficient, she wasn’t super friendly. Maybe just having an off day or it was too early and she wasn’t awake yet :)
PG
Dr. Bohm is great! Explains everything and is informative and very knowledgeable. Pleasant to speak to.
