Oncological Surgery

Oncological surgery is a medical procedure focused on diagnosing, treating, or managing cancer. Surgeons remove tumors and surrounding tissues, aiming to eliminate cancerous cells and prevent their spread. This type of surgery may be performed for various reasons: to remove cancer completely, reduce its size before other treatments like chemotherapy, or relieve symptoms caused by the cancer. It plays a crucial role in cancer care, often combined with other treatments such as radiation or medication, to improve patient outcomes and quality of life.
