Colon Cancer Surgery Options by Dr MSS Keerthi
Colon cancer is one of the most common cancers today, but with early diagnosis and the right surgical care, it can be treated successfully. Surgery remains the main treatment for most stages of colon cancer. Dr MSS Keerthi, a highly experienced colon cancer specialist, provides advanced and personalised surgical care for patients at Hills Gastro & Onco Care, using the latest techniques to improve recovery and outcomes.
As a trusted Cancer Specialist, Dr MSS Keerthi focuses on choosing the most suitable surgery based on the cancer stage, location of the tumour, and the patient’s overall health.
Common Colon Cancer Surgery Options
1. Local Resection (Early-Stage Cancer)
For very early colon cancers, only the cancerous area and a small margin of healthy tissue are removed. This is possible when cancer is detected early during screening.
2. Partial Colectomy
This is the most common colon cancer surgery. The affected part of the colon is removed along with nearby lymph nodes. The healthy ends of the bowel are then joined. A skilled laparoscopic surgeon like Dr MSS Keerthi often performs this using minimally invasive methods.
3. Laparoscopic Colon Surgery
In laparoscopic surgery, small cuts are made instead of a large incision. This leads to less pain, faster recovery, and shorter hospital stay. Many patients prefer this approach when suitable.
4. Robotic Colon Surgery
As an expert Robotic Surgeon, Dr MSS Keerthi uses robotic-assisted surgery for complex colon cancer cases. This technique offers better precision, improved visibility, and more accurate removal of cancer tissue.
5. Surgery for Advanced Colon Cancer
In advanced cases, colon cancer surgery may be combined with chemotherapy or radiation. Coordination with specialists involved in Gynecological Cancer Treatment, lung care from a Lung Cancer Surgeon, or oral cancer experts such as an Oral Cancer Surgeon ensures complete care.
Multidisciplinary Expertise Matters
Colon cancer treatment often overlaps with other digestive and abdominal cancers. Dr MSS Keerthi’s experience as an HPB Surgeon and her collaboration with experts like a Gallbladder Cancer doctor helps manage complex cases where multiple organs may be involved.
