Popular Procedures

Common medical and surgical procedures available under Oncology

Breast Cancer Surgery

Breast cancer surgery removes cancerous tissue from the breast while preserving appearance whenever possible. Options range from lumpectomy (removing only the tumor) to mastectomy (removing the entire breast), often paired with lymph node removal and reconstructive choices.

Breast Conserving Surgery (BCS)

Breast conserving surgery removes only the cancerous tumor and a small margin of surrounding healthy tissue, allowing you to keep most of your natural breast. It is typically followed by radiation therapy for the best long-term results.

Mastectomy

Mastectomy is a surgical procedure to remove all or part of the breast tissue, most commonly performed to treat or prevent breast cancer. Depending on the medical need, it can be done as a total, skin-sparing, or nipple-sparing procedure.

Sentinel Node Biopsy

Sentinel node biopsy is a minimally invasive procedure where the first lymph nodes to which cancer is likely to spread are identified, removed, and tested. This helps accurately stage the disease while sparing patients from the removal of healthy lymph nodes.

Lung Cancer Surgery (Lobectomy)

A lobectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the entire lobe of a lung affected by cancer. By carefully excising the diseased section, surgeons eliminate the tumor while preserving your remaining healthy lung tissue for easier breathing.

Pneumonectomy

Pneumonectomy is a surgical procedure to remove an entire diseased lung, most commonly performed to treat lung cancer. This major operation helps eliminate the tumor and prevent the disease from spreading to healthy surrounding tissues.

Colon Cancer Surgery

Colon cancer surgery involves removing the cancerous section of the large intestine along with nearby lymph nodes, then reconnecting the healthy ends. Minimally invasive laparoscopic or robotic techniques are commonly used to reduce pain and speed up your recovery.

Rectal Cancer Surgery

Rectal cancer surgery removes the cancerous portion of the rectum and surrounding lymph nodes to eliminate the disease. Depending on the stage, surgeons aim to preserve bowel function while ensuring complete tumor removal for a safe recovery.

Liver Cancer Surgery

Liver cancer surgery involves removing the cancerous tumor along with a safe margin of healthy liver tissue, or performing a total transplant. This precision procedure restores liver function and offers the best chance for long-term recovery and cure.

Pancreatic Cancer Surgery

Pancreatic cancer surgery involves removing all or part of the pancreas, often via the Whipple procedure, to eliminate cancerous tumors. This complex operation restores digestive flow and offers the best chance for long-term recovery and cancer control.

Whipple Procedure

The Whipple procedure is a complex surgery to remove the head of the pancreas, part of the small intestine, gallbladder, and bile duct. It treats tumors in these areas by carefully reconnecting remaining organs to restore normal digestion.

Esophageal Cancer Surgery

Esophageal cancer surgery (esophagectomy) removes the diseased portion of the esophagus and nearby lymph nodes. The remaining healthy stomach is then pulled up and reconnected to create a new pathway, helping you swallow and eat normally again.

Stomach Cancer Surgery

Stomach cancer surgery involves removing all or part of the stomach (gastrectomy) along with nearby lymph nodes to eliminate cancerous tissue. Depending on the stage, surgeons reconnect the digestive tract so you can continue eating normally.

Kidney Cancer Surgery

Kidney cancer surgery involves removing part or all of the affected kidney to eliminate the tumor. Minimally invasive robotic and laparoscopic techniques are commonly used to preserve healthy kidney function, minimize scarring, and speed up your recovery.

Bladder Cancer Surgery

Bladder cancer surgery involves removing part or all of the bladder to treat cancerous tumors. Depending on the stage, surgeons may perform a minimally invasive tumor removal or a complete reconstruction to preserve your long-term health and quality of life.

Prostate Cancer Surgery

Prostate cancer surgery, or a radical prostatectomy, involves removing the prostate gland and surrounding tissues to eliminate cancer cells. This procedure can be performed using minimally invasive, robotic-assisted techniques to preserve urinary control and sexual function.

Ovarian Cancer Surgery

Ovarian cancer surgery involves removing the cancerous tissue, typically including the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, and nearby lymph nodes. This procedure is crucial for staging the disease and removing as much of the tumor as possible.

Cervical Cancer Surgery

Cervical cancer surgery involves removing cancerous tissue from the cervix and surrounding areas. Depending on the stage, procedures range from removing a small tissue section to a full hysterectomy, effectively treating the disease while preserving overall health.

Uterine Cancer Surgery

Uterine cancer surgery typically involves a hysterectomy to remove the uterus, along with surrounding tissues or lymph nodes if necessary. This primary treatment effectively eliminates cancerous cells and prevents the disease from spreading further.

Brain Tumor Surgery

Brain tumor surgery is a precise neurosurgical procedure to safely remove or reduce a tumor while protecting surrounding healthy brain tissue. This vital intervention relieves pressure, alleviates neurological symptoms, and provides definitive tissue diagnosis for further treatment planning.

Glioma Surgery

Glioma surgery is a precise neurosurgical procedure to safely remove as much of a brain tumor as possible while preserving vital brain function. Advanced techniques and mapping help protect your mobility, speech, and overall quality of life.

Pituitary Tumor Surgery

Pituitary tumor surgery removes abnormal growths from the base of the brain, usually through the nasal cavity. This delicate procedure relieves pressure on nearby vision nerves and helps restore normal hormone balance throughout your body.

Bone Marrow Transplant (Autologous)

Autologous bone marrow transplant replaces your diseased bone marrow with your own healthy stem cells, harvested before high-dose chemotherapy or radiation. This procedure helps your body safely recover and rebuild a healthy, cancer-free immune system.

Bone Marrow Transplant (Allogenic)

An allogeneic bone marrow transplant replaces diseased bone marrow with healthy stem cells from a matched donor. This advanced procedure helps rebuild a healthy immune system, offering renewed hope for patients battling severe blood cancers and disorders.

Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy is a powerful medical treatment that uses specialized medications to target and destroy rapidly dividing cancer cells throughout your body. It can be administered orally or intravenously to shrink tumors, stop cancer from spreading, or relieve symptoms.

Immunotherapy

Immunotherapy is an advanced cancer treatment that empowers your body's own immune system to recognize, target, and destroy cancer cells. Unlike traditional chemotherapy, it trains your natural defenses to fight the disease and protect healthy tissue.

Radiation Therapy

Radiation therapy uses high-energy beams to precisely target and destroy cancer cells while sparing healthy tissue. This painless, non-invasive outpatient treatment shrinks tumors, stops cancer growth, and is often combined with surgery or chemotherapy for the best outcomes.

Cyber Knife

CyberKnife is a painless, non-invasive robotic radiosurgery system. It delivers precise, high-dose radiation directly to tumors anywhere in the body while protecting healthy surrounding tissue, requiring no incisions, anesthesia, or lengthy recovery times.

PET CT Scan

PET-CT scans combine advanced imaging technologies to detect cancer, track treatment progress, and evaluate disease spread. A safe, specialized tracer is injected, highlighting high-activity areas in your body so doctors can see detailed metabolic changes clearly.
