[Method of injection necrotherapy of benign tumors of the subcutaneous cellular tissue].
With the aim of exterminating small (up to 3--4 cm. in diameter), single or multiple subcutaneous fat tumors (lipoma etc.) the author suggests to use transcutaneous injections of solutions possessing necrotizing properties (10% calcium chloride, 96% alcohol, formalin) into the tumor instead of its surgical removal. The injection should be done under local anesthesia, slowly, the amount of solution not exceeding 0.5--1 of the volume of the tumor. The necrotherapy has been used for 4 years upon 14 patients (32 tumors); besides, the author made 12 self-injections. In 3 cases a repeated injection was required. There were no complications or recurrences.
