Hi, My mother,65 years old, is a chronic asthma patient. She has a lump near her ear which upon checking found to be a benign pleomorphic adenoma. The doctor suggested it's better to remove it surgically as it has been there for more than 15 years. (Superficial Paratodictomy) The problem is the surgery should be performed under general anaesthesia. We know that for asthmatic patiets GA is really an issue. Now we are to scared to either undergo a surgery or just keep it like that. Kindly suggest how we should proceed and what precautions we shoukd take. If possible suggest us a good general surgeon in Visakhapatnam. Thanks
