2. Etymology
• Surgery
• Greek word 'Cheir' (Hand)
'Ergon' (to work)
• Latin word 'Chirurgia' "treatment
of disease, injury or deformity by
manual or instrumental operations,
as the removal of diseased parts of
tissue by cutting"
3. Etymology
• Oncology
• Greek word ὄγκος (óngkos), meaning
• "burden, volume, mass"
• Greek word λόγος (logos), meaning "study".
4. Etymology
• Cancer
• from Latin, ‘crab or creeping
ulcer’,
• translating Greek karkinos, said
to have been applied to such
tumours because the swollen
veins around them resembled the
limbs of a crab.
• canker was the usual form until
the 17th century
6. Introduction
Solid tumors
• Surgery remains the definitive
treatment
• Only realistic hope of cure
Role of surgery
• Diagnosis
• Removal of primary disease
• Removal of metastatic disease
• Palliation
• Prevention
• Reconstruction
7. Multi
disciplinary
approach
Although surgery is an effective therapy for
most solid tumors
• patients who die from cancer usually die of metastatic
disease.
Radiation therapy
Systemic therapy
Targeted including hormonal therapy
Improved survival
8. Multi
disciplinary
approach
• Surgical Oncologist:
• techniques for performing a cancer operation
• Alternatives to surgery and
• Reconstructive options
• indications for and complications of
preoperative and postoperative
chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
9. Surgical Oncology: NOT just surgery
• History and Physical examination
• Investigation for general health and cancer specific
• Hematological
• Radiological
• Pathological
• Preoperative assessment/fitness/optimization
Preoperative care (Diagnosis + Staging + Optimisation)
Intraoperative care
• HDU / ICU / SECU care
• Wound / Drains / Diet / DVT care
• Discharge
• Follow up in clinic / surveillance
• Referral for adjuvant as per histopathology report
Postoperative care
10. Diagnosis and
Staging
Occasionally a surgical procedure is
required to make the diagnosis
Malignant ascites
• Laparoscopy for obtaining tissue for
diagnosis
Staging laparoscopy
• Intra abdominal malignancy, particularly
esophageal and gastric cancer
• < 5mm liver and peritoneal lesions missed
on imaging.
11. Diagnosis and
Staging
• Useful adjunct for diagnosis of
intrahepatic metastases
Laparoscopic ultrasound
• Suspicion of testicular cancer
Orchidectomy
• Lymphoma
Lymph node biopsy
12. Diagnosis and
Staging
Sentinel node biopsy
• Melanoma and breast cancer
• Radiolabelled colloid
Staging laparotomy
• Lymphoma (in past; replaced
with more accurate cross-
sectional imaging and
chemotherapy)
13. Removal of
primary disease
Goal: Oncologic Cure
• Removal of primary tumor + as much of the
surrounding tissue + lymph node drainage as
possible
• Local control
• Prevent spread of tumor through lymphatics
Radical Surgery
• Little effect on development of metastatic disease
• Radical versus simple mastectomy for breast
cancer
• WLE versus compartmental resection for
extremity sarcoma
Ultra-radical Surgery
14. Removal of primary disease
• High quality, meticulous surgery
• Not to disrupt the primary tumor at time of excision
• Important to obtain cure in localized disease and preventing local recurrence
15. Surgical
Management of
Lymph basins
Halsted theory: LND for staging and survival
Fischer theory: LN involvement means
systemic disease (staging , but not survival)
LN involvement most important prognostic
factor
Will Roger / Stage migration phenomenon
18. Removal of
metastatic
disease
Patient selection is key to success
Tumor biology
• Type : colorectal versus pancreatic
• Growth rate: Disease free interval
Control of primary site
Limited / resectable metastatic disease
Patient fitness (operable)
19. Removal of
metastatic
disease
Metastasectomy / Oligometastases (≤ 5)
Liver metastases from colorectal cancer
• Resection of all detectable disease
• Long term survival in about one-third cases
• Surgical approach for in situ ablation with
cryotherapy or radiofrequency energy
Pulmonary resection for isolated lung
metastases (RCC)
Brain metastases (isolated superficial –
melanoma)
20. Palliation
• Symptomatic primary tumor with distant metastases
• Removal of primary tumor
• Increase QoL (Quality of life)
• Little effect on ultimate outcome
• Unresectable cecal cancer leading to
obstruction
• Bypass procedure
• Proximal diversion stoma
• Unresectable carcinoma of head of pancreas
leading to biliary and gastric outlet obstruction
• Cholecysto or choledocho-jejunostomy /
gastrojejunostomy
24. Role of surgery
in emergency
Proximal Obstruction
Pale (Bleeding)
Perforation
(Pain)
25. RO versus R1
versus R2
resection
RO : No residual microscopic
or macroscopic disease
• Goal of cancer surgery (local
control/ recurrence and survival)
R1: Microscopic residual
disease
R2: Macroscopic residual
disease
