Onco Surgery: Surgical Intervention for Cancer Treatment

Onco surgery, or surgical oncology, refers to the use of surgical procedures to diagnose, treat, and manage cancer. It is a core component of cancer treatment that may involve removing tumors, affected tissues, or organs to prevent the spread of cancerous cells. Onco surgery is often performed in conjunction with other treatments like chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

Purpose of Onco Surgery
Onco surgery aims to remove cancerous cells to reduce the spread of cancer or completely eradicate the disease. It serves multiple purposes, such as:

  • Primary Surgery: Removes the main tumor when it’s localized, potentially curing cancer.
  • Debulking Surgery: Reduces the size of a tumor to make it more manageable for further treatments.
  • Palliative Surgery: Eases symptoms caused by advanced cancer when a cure isn’t possible.

Types of Onco Surgery
The type of surgery performed depends on the cancer type, location, and stage. Some common onco surgeries include:

  • Lumpectomy or Mastectomy for Breast Cancer
  • Colectomy for Colon Cancer
  • Gastrectomy for Stomach Cancer
  • Lobectomy or Pneumonectomy for Lung Cancer

Advancements in Onco Surgery
Recent advancements have made onco surgery more precise and effective. Techniques like robotic-assisted surgery, minimally invasive surgery, and targeted excision procedures have improved survival rates and reduced recovery times for cancer patients. Surgeons now use imaging technologies like MRI and CT scans for precision in tumor removal, helping to preserve surrounding healthy tissue and reduce side effects.

Recovery and Considerations
Recovery varies depending on the type and extent of surgery. Most patients require follow-up treatments, such as chemotherapy or radiation, to eliminate any remaining cancer cells. While onco surgery is generally safe, potential complications include infection, bleeding, and risks associated with anesthesia.
