Abdominal Cancer Surgery

Abdominal cancers are among the most challenging conditions, as they affect vital organs like the stomach, liver, pancreas, intestines, and kidneys. Early detection and the right surgical intervention can make a life-saving difference. Abdominal cancer surgery is often the cornerstone of treatment, aiming to remove cancerous tumours, prevent further spread, and restore a patient’s health.

At Kiran Medicare Hospital, patients benefit from Dr. Rakesh Wasson’s expertise in surgical oncology, receiving advanced surgical treatment paired with compassionate care. Every step of the journey, from diagnosis to recovery, is managed with precision, support, and a patient-focused approach.

Understanding Abdominal Cancer Surgery

Abdominal cancer surgery is performed to treat cancers that arise in organs within the abdominal cavity. The type of surgery depends on the location, size, and stage of the cancer, as well as the patient’s overall health. The main goals include:

• Removing tumours completely (Curative Surgery) to eliminate cancer cells.
• Reducing tumour size (Debulking Surgery) to make other treatments like chemotherapy or radiation more effective.
• Relieving symptoms (Palliative Surgery) such as pain, obstruction, or bleeding in advanced stages.

In many cases, surgery is combined with other therapies, including chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy, as part of a multidisciplinary treatment plan.

Types of Abdominal Cancers Treated with Surgery

Dr. Rakesh Wasson provides surgical care for a wide range of abdominal cancers, including but not limited to:

• Stomach (Gastric) Cancer: Tumour removal or partial/total gastrectomy.
• Colorectal Cancer: Resection of the affected colon or rectum with reconnection of healthy bowel.
• Pancreatic Cancer: Whipple procedure or distal pancreatectomy, depending on tumour location.
• Liver Cancer: Liver resection or transplantation evaluation if needed.
• Ovarian Cancer: Surgical removal of the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and surrounding tissues.
• Kidney Cancer: Partial or complete nephrectomy (kidney removal).
