Surgical Oncology for Vulvar Cancer
Certain types of vulvar cancer are treated most effectively by simply removing the tumor surgically. Surgery is the oldest form of treating cancer and can also have an important role in diagnosing and staging cancer. The expert surgeons at Cancer Treatment Centers of America are skilled in the most sophisticated surgical techniques.
Surgery is done 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.
