Surgical Oncology for Cervical Cancer
Certain types of cervical cancer are treated most effectively by simply removing the tumor surgically. Surgery is the oldest form of cervical cancer treatment. It can also have an important role in diagnosing and staging cervical cancer. The skilled surgeons at Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA) are experienced in performing the most sophisticated surgical techniques for the effective treatment of cervical cancer.
Surgery is a recommended cancer treatment for many reasons, often to accomplish one or more of these goals: preventative (or prophylactic) surgery, diagnostic surgery, staging surgery, curative surgery, debulking (or cytoreductive) surgery, palliative surgery, supportive surgery and restorative (or reconstructive) surgery.
