Conditions treated

Cancers treated, explained in plain language

Written and reviewed by Dr. Ishaan Allahabadi, MCh Surgical Oncology (Edge Hill, UK) · MS Surgery · MBBS (Accredited by the Royal College of Surgeons of England). Symptoms to watch for, how each cancer is staged, and how surgery treats it.

Colorectal cancer

Colon Cancer: Symptoms, Stages and Robotic Surgery

Colon cancer is usually treated first with surgery that removes the tumour along with its lymphatic drainage. Robotic complete mesocolic excision achieves this through keyhole incisions, with most patients going home in two to four days and many avoiding a stoma entirely.

Colorectal cancer

Rectal Cancer: Sphincter-Saving Robotic Surgery

Rectal cancer is treated with total mesorectal excision, often after radiotherapy or chemotherapy. The deep, narrow pelvis is where robotic surgery offers its greatest advantage — wristed instruments allow sphincter and nerve preservation that is technically harder with laparoscopy.

Gynaecological cancer

Ovarian Cancer: Cytoreductive Surgery and HIPEC

Ovarian cancer is treated with surgery that removes every visible deposit, combined with chemotherapy. In selected advanced cases, cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC — heated chemotherapy circulated in the abdomen — improves control of peritoneal disease.

Gynaecological cancer

Endometrial (Uterine) Cancer: Robotic Hysterectomy

Endometrial cancer usually announces itself early through abnormal or postmenopausal bleeding, and is highly curable with surgery. Robotic hysterectomy with sentinel lymph node mapping is the modern standard — most patients go home within 24 hours.

Gynaecological cancer

Cervical Cancer: Surgery, Staging and Fertility Options

Cervical cancer is preventable through screening and HPV vaccination, and highly treatable when caught early. Early-stage disease is treated with radical hysterectomy — with fertility-sparing trachelectomy an option for selected young women — while locally advanced disease is treated with chemoradiation.

Breast cancer

Breast Cancer: Conservation, Reconstruction and Recovery

Most breast cancers today are treated without removing the breast. Oncoplastic breast-conserving surgery, sentinel node biopsy and, when mastectomy is needed, immediate reconstruction treat the cancer while preserving form and confidence.

Upper GI cancer

Stomach (Gastric) Cancer: Gastrectomy and Recovery

Stomach cancer is treated with surgery that removes part or all of the stomach along with its draining lymph nodes, usually combined with chemotherapy. Minimally invasive gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection offers the same oncological clearance with a gentler recovery.

Upper GI cancer

Pancreatic Cancer: The Whipple Operation and Your Options

Pancreatic cancer is serious but not hopeless — when caught before it involves major blood vessels, surgical removal with the Whipple operation combined with chemotherapy offers the only realistic chance of long-term survival. Every case deserves review at a centre that performs these operations regularly.

Peritoneal surface malignancy

Peritoneal Cancer and CRS-HIPEC: When Spread Is Still Treatable

Cancer spread to the lining of the abdomen — peritoneal carcinomatosis — was once considered untreatable. Cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC now offers long-term survival for selected patients with colorectal, appendiceal, ovarian and mesothelioma peritoneal disease.

Sarcoma

Retroperitoneal Sarcoma: Why the First Operation Matters Most

Retroperitoneal sarcomas grow silently behind the abdominal organs until large. Surgery removing the tumour en bloc with involved organs is the only curative treatment — and the first operation, planned correctly, is the best chance of cure.
