Hi there. The cost for a surgery like this will vary greatly depending on where you live and what clinic you go to, as well as how involved the surgery is expected to be - which we can't really know without being able to palpate the tumor and get a better idea of what it's attached to, how much extra skin there is in the area, etc. If cost is a concern, I would recommend calling around to some local clinics to see if they can give you a general price range for this type of surgery at their hospital. But to get a more specific estimate, you will likely have to take Dume in for an exam.
