Excision of Malignant Soft-Tissue Tumour (Limb): Oncologic Clearance with Functional Preservation
Malignant soft-tissue tumours of the limbs require wide excision to achieve oncologic control while preserving nerves, vessels, and limb function.
What It Costs
MOH-aligned private fees typically include:
• Surgeon fee: SGD 12,000 – 20,000
• Anaesthetist fee: SGD 3,500 – 5,500
Reconstruction, grafts, or flaps may add to total cost.
What’s Typically Covered
Most comprehensive plans cover:
• Cancer surgery with limb-salvage intent
• Hospitalisation and anaesthesia
Insurance Tip
Ensure documentation specifies wide margins and oncologic intent, not cosmetic excision.
Conclusion
Cancer clearance and limb preservation go hand in hand. Insurance support is essential.
