Overview

What is Cancer Surgery?

Cancer surgery is a medical procedure performed to remove cancerous tumors or affected tissues from the body. It is one of the primary treatment methods for cancer and may be used alone or in combination with other treatments like chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

Purpose

Why is Cancer Surgery Done?

Cancer surgery is performed for various reasons, including:

  • Removing the tumor completely.
  • Diagnosing cancer through biopsy.
  • Reducing the size of a tumor before other treatments.
  • Relieving symptoms and improving the quality of life.
  • Preventing cancer spread by removing affected organs or tissues.
Classification

Types of Cancer Surgery

There are different types of cancer surgeries depending on the type, location, and stage of cancer. These include:

Curative SurgeryRemoves the entire tumor when cancer is localized.
Debulking SurgeryRemoves as much of the tumor as possible when complete removal isn't feasible.
Palliative SurgeryEases symptoms in advanced cancer cases.
Reconstructive SurgeryRestores the appearance or function after cancer removal.
Preventive SurgeryRemoves at-risk tissues to prevent cancer (e.g., mastectomy in high-risk patients).
Minimally Invasive SurgeryLaparoscopic or robotic-assisted surgeries for quicker recovery.
