Combining cervical cancer surgery in India with a sincere, caring environment and personal and professional care make you feel confident and comfortable with cancer treatments abroad. What is cervical cancer surgery When patients need treatment for cancer in the cervix or treatment for the area close to the tumor, doctors may recommend cervical cancer surgery. Most women with early cervical cancer will require surgery to remove the cervix and uterus this is known as a total hysterectomy. Surgery for cancer of the cervix usually involves removing the womb nearby lymph nodes and a small part of the vagina. If the cancer cells have spread only very slightly beyond the surface cells of the cervix, it may be possible to treat this with a cone biopsy, laser therapy or using cold coagulation. An operation called a trachelectomy may also be possible. Cervical Cancer surgery options The following surgical procedures may be used as part of cervical cancer treatment. Conization Conization, also called a cone biopsy, is a procedure that is used to remove a cone-shaped piece of tissue from the cervix and cervical canal. A pathologist will view the tissue under a microscope to look
    2. for cancer cells. This type of surgery may be used to diagnose or treat a cervical condition. Total Hysterectomy A total hysterectomy is a surgical procedure that is used to remove the uterus, including the cervix. Three different procedures may be used to perform a total hysterectomy: • A vaginal hysterectomy, in which the uterus and cervix are taken out through the vagina • A total abdominal hysterectomy, in which the uterus and cervix are taken out through a large incision (cut) in the abdomen (stomach) • A total laparoscopic hysterectomy, in which the uterus and cervix are taken out through a small incision in the abdomen using a laparoscope. Bilateral Salpingo-Oophorectomy (BSO) A BSO is a surgical procedure that is used to remove the ovaries and the fallopian tubes. Radical Hysterectomy A radical hysterectomy is a surgical procedure that is used to remove the uterus, cervix, and part of the vagina. The ovaries, fallopian tubes, or nearby lymph nodes may also be removed. Pelvic Exenteration A pelvic exenteration is a surgical procedure that is used to remove the lower colon, rectum, and bladder. For women, the cervix, vagina, ovaries, and nearby lymph nodes are also removed. Surgeons will
    3. need to make artificial openings (stomas) for the urine and the stool. Women may need plastic surgery to make an artificial vagina after they have had a pelvic exenteration. Cryosurgery Cryosurgery is a treatment that uses an instrument to freeze and destroy abnormal tissue, such as carcinoma in situ. This type of cervical cancer surgery is also called cryotherapy. Laser Surgery Laser surgery is a procedure that uses a laser beam (a narrow beam of intense light) as a knife to make bloodless cuts in tissue or to remove a surface lesion such as a tumor. Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure (LEEP) LEEP is a treatment that uses electrical current (passed through a thin wire loop) as a knife to remove abnormal tissue or cancer. Recovering From Cervical Cancer Surgery It takes time to heal after surgery for cervical cancer, and the recovery time is different for each woman. If you had surgery to remove a small tumor on the surface of the cervix, you may experience cramping, pain, bleeding, or a watery discharge. If you had a hysterectomy, the length of the hospital stay may vary from several days to a week. Common discomforts after a hysterectomy include: • Feeling tired or weak • Nausea and vomiting • Bladder and bowel problems. After cervical cancer surgery, your doctor may restrict your diet to liquids at first, with a gradual return to solid food. However, most
    4. women return to their normal activities within four to eight weeks after surgery.
