Advanced Cancer Surgeries
Gastrectomy
A Gastrectomy involves the surgical removal of part or all of the stomach, typically to treat stomach cancer. Depending on the extent of the cancer, a partial, total, or sleeve gastrectomy may be performed. This procedure can be done using minimally invasive techniques, which promote faster recovery and fewer complications. Post-surgery, dietary adjustments are usually required to adapt to the changes in the digestive system.
Whipple Procedure
The Whipple Procedure, or pancreaticoduodenectomy, is a complex surgery used to treat cancers of the pancreas, bile duct, and small intestine. It involves removing the head of the pancreas, part of the small intestine, the gallbladder, and the bile duct. This surgery is intricate but can be life-saving for patients with localized cancer, often performed using advanced techniques to minimize recovery time and improve outcomes.
Stereotactic Radiosurgery
Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) is a non-invasive procedure that uses precisely targeted radiation to treat tumors in the brain and other parts of the body. Despite its name, it is not a traditional surgery but a form of radiation therapy that delivers high doses of radiation with extreme accuracy. SRS is often used for brain tumors, allowing treatment with minimal impact on surrounding healthy tissue.
Lumpectomy
A Lumpectomy is a breast-conserving surgery where only the tumor and a small margin of surrounding tissue are removed. It is typically used to treat early-stage breast cancer, allowing the patient to retain most of their breast. Often combined with radiation therapy, this procedure aims to remove the cancerous cells while preserving as much of the breast tissue as possible.
Brachytherapy
Brachytherapy is a form of internal radiation therapy where radioactive seeds or sources are placed directly inside or near the tumor. This technique allows for a high dose of radiation to be delivered to the cancer while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissues. Brachytherapy is commonly used for cancers such as prostate, cervical, and breast cancer, offering targeted treatment with fewer side effects than traditional radiation therapy.
