Surgery may be an effective treatment option for some types of cancers, like breast, oesophagus, throat, thyroid, colon, uterus, gallbladder, kidney, bone, pancreas, and skin. Minimally invasive or open surgery may be performed as per the individual’s needs.
Sometimes, surgery is performed during the early stages of cancer or if it is localised. But, most of the time, surgery along with Chemotherapy or Radiation therapy is performed. Patients are screened and treated according to the stage and type of cancer with the best possible treatment. For diagnostic purposes, a Biopsy is done to confirm the cancer.
In most cases, medical oncologists refer patients to a surgical oncologist if they believe a surgical intervention is the only way to tackle your condition. Once your medical history is reviewed, you may be told to undergo some advanced imaging or screening tests, like an MRI, PET CT, or biopsy, to assess your eligibility for surgery. If yes, treatment plans are discussed, including pre-operative and post-operative instructions, recovery success, and follow-ups.
Signs that cancer may have recurred after surgery are
Appearance of new lumps or growths in the same area or other parts of the body
Unexplained weight loss or fatigue
Symptoms which were observed previously, such as difficulty breathing, coughing, or changes in bowel or bladder habits
Persistent pain in the area where the cancer was originally located or in other areas
Swelling in the lymph nodes
Headaches, vision changes, or other neurological symptoms, especially in cases of brain cancer
Surgical oncologists often use a combination of methods to see if a cancer recurrence has occurred. These include:
Imaging scans like PET, MRI or X-rays
Blood tests, including checking for cancer tumours to see if they are elevated
Physical examination to check for signs of lumps or other skin changes
Screening procedures like biopsy
