Uterine Cancer Treatment: Gynecological Surgery

The oldest form of treatment, removing the tumor surgically, is still the most effective form of treatment for certain types of uterine cancer.

Surgery can also play an important role in the diagnosis and staging of uterine cancer. One such surgery that may be performed is a hysterectomy. A hysterectomy is a procedure in which the uterus is removed to help doctors determine the stage of the uterine cancer. Once the uterus is removed, the surgeon can check to see if the cancer has spread to the muscle of the uterus, lymph nodes and other organs in the pelvic area. Additionally, surgery to remove the ovaries and fallopian tubes may be recommended.

At Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA), our physicians will work with you to determine whether uterine cancer surgery may be an option for you. Our highly skilled and experienced surgeons are able to perform such complex, gynecological surgeries.
