Common Cancers Treated by Our Surgical Oncologists
Surgical oncologists provide care for cancers that may affect different organs and tissues of the body. The type of cancer, the organ involved and the extent of the disease can vary from patient to patient. At Ujala Cygnus Hospitals, our surgical oncology team evaluates different types of cancers as part of specialist cancer care. These include but are not limited to:
Breast Cancer
Breast cancer develops when abnormal cells in the breast grow and multiply in an uncontrolled way. It can develop in different parts of the breast, including the milk ducts or milk-producing glands. Breast cancer can affect people of different ages, although the risk generally increases with age.
Gastrointestinal Cancers
Gastrointestinal cancers develop in the organs that form the digestive system. These cancers can affect the oesophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum or other parts of the gastrointestinal tract. The type of cancer varies according to the organ in which abnormal cells develop.
Colorectal Cancers
Colorectal cancer develops in the colon or rectum, which form the large intestine. It usually begins when abnormal cells develop in the inner lining of the bowel and grow over time. Depending on where the cancer develops, it may affect different sections of the colon or rectum.
Head and Neck Cancers
Head and neck cancers include cancers that develop in areas such as the mouth, throat, voice box, nose and sinuses. These cancers can affect different tissues and structures in the head and neck, depending on where abnormal cells develop. Oral and throat cancers are among the commonly recognised cancers within this group.
Liver and Pancreatic Cancers
Liver cancer develops when abnormal cells grow in the liver, while pancreatic cancer develops in the pancreas, an organ located behind the stomach. Both organs play important roles in digestion and other body functions. These cancers can differ in type, location, and extent, which may affect the required clinical evaluation.
Surgical Oncology Diagnostics at Ujala Cygnus Hospital,Kashipur
A thorough assessment helps surgical oncologists understand the type, location, and extent of cancer and determine the required investigations. At Ujala Cygnus Hospital, Kashipur, our specialists review the patient's symptoms, medical history and previous reports before recommending diagnostic tests. Based on the clinical findings, they may recommend the following diagnostic investigations:
Blood Tests
Blood tests can provide information about the patient's overall health and may help identify changes associated with certain cancers. They can also help assess blood cell counts, liver and kidney function and other parameters that may be relevant to the patient's condition.
Imaging Scans
Imaging tests help doctors view the location and extent of a tumour and check whether cancer may have affected nearby tissues or other parts of the body. Depending on the suspected cancer, the specialist may recommend tests such as ultrasound, CT scans, MRI or PET scans.
Biopsy
A biopsy involves removing a small sample of tissue or cells from an area of concern. The sample is then sent to a pathology laboratory for examination to determine whether cancer cells are present and, when applicable, identify the type of cancer.
Pathology
Pathology involves the detailed laboratory examination of the tissue or cell sample obtained through a biopsy. A pathologist examines the sample under a microscope and may perform additional tests to identify the type and characteristics of cancer cells. The pathology report provides important information that doctors use to confirm and further understand the diagnosis.
Surgical Oncology Procedures at Ujala Cygnus Hospital,Kashipur
Surgical oncology at Ujala Cygnus Hospital, Kashipur, provides cancer surgery and tumour removal as part of specialist surgical oncology care. Here are some of the common surgical procedures performed by our surgical oncologists:
Tumour Resection Surgery
Tumour resection involves removing the cancerous tumour along with a margin of surrounding tissue when required. The extent of tissue removal depends on the location and characteristics of the cancer.
Debulking Surgery
Debulking surgery involves removing as much of a tumour as safely possible when complete removal is not possible or appropriate. It may be considered for selected cancers where reducing the tumour burden can form part of the overall cancer treatment.
Palliative Surgery
Palliative surgery aims to relieve symptoms or complications caused by cancer rather than remove all cancerous tissue. Depending on the condition, it may help relieve problems such as obstruction, bleeding or pressure caused by a tumour.
Lymphadenectomy
Lymphadenectomy involves removing one or more lymph nodes near a cancerous area. The procedure may be performed to remove lymph nodes that contain cancer cells or to help assess whether cancer has spread to the lymph nodes.
Reconstructive Surgery
Reconstructive surgery may be considered after cancer removal when tissue or structures need to be restored. Depending on the site and extent of cancer surgery, reconstruction may help restore physical structure or function.
Surgical Approaches in Cancer Treatment
Cancer surgery can be performed through different surgical approaches depending on the location and extent of the cancer and the patient's clinical condition. Our surgical oncologists are experienced in performing cancer surgeries using different surgical approaches, including:
Open Surgery
Open surgery involves making an incision to provide direct access to the tumour and surrounding tissues. This approach may be required for certain cancers or complex procedures where wider access is needed.
Minimally Invasive Surgery
Minimally invasive surgery uses smaller incisions and specialised surgical instruments to perform selected cancer procedures. Laparoscopic surgery is one type of minimally invasive approach and may be considered for suitable patients and procedures.
Robotic-Assisted Surgery
Robotic-assisted surgery uses specialised robotic instruments controlled by the surgeon to perform selected procedures through small incisions. Its use depends on the type of cancer, the planned procedure and the availability of appropriate technology and expertise.
