Areas of Expertise and Treatments
Cervical cancer surgery may involve removal of the cervix and uterus with assessment of nearby tissues and lymph nodes depending on the stage, tumour size and individual treatment plan.
Ovarian cancer surgery aims to remove the ovarian tumour and, when required, other affected tissues to achieve appropriate staging and maximum safe tumour reduction.
Robotic surgery uses advanced surgical technology to assist selected minimally invasive procedures for gynecologic cancers with enhanced visualisation and precision.
Laparoscopic surgery uses small incisions and specialised instruments for selected gynecologic oncology procedures where a minimally invasive approach is clinically appropriate.
Colposcopy provides magnified examination of the cervix and surrounding tissues to assess abnormal cervical screening findings and identify areas that may require biopsy.
Radical hysterectomy involves removal of the uterus, cervix and selected surrounding tissues and may be used in appropriately selected cases of cervical or other gynecologic cancers.
Oophorectomy is the surgical removal of one or both ovaries and may form part of treatment for selected ovarian and other gynecologic malignancies.
Salpingectomy involves removal of one or both fallopian tubes and may be required in selected gynecologic cancer procedures or when disease involves the fallopian tubes.
Surgery for ovarian tumours is planned according to tumour type, size, imaging findings and risk of malignancy, with appropriate staging when cancer is suspected.
Cytoreductive surgery aims to remove as much visible tumour as safely possible and is an important component of treatment for selected advanced ovarian and gynecologic cancers.
Chemotherapy may be used before or after surgery or as part of treatment for recurrent or advanced gynecologic cancers depending on tumour type and clinical stage.
Preventive gynecologic oncology includes risk assessment, cervical screening, colposcopy and early evaluation of abnormal findings to support timely cancer detection and treatment.
Management of uterine cancers may involve surgery and additional oncology treatment based on tumour type, stage, pathological findings and individual patient factors.
Palliative cancer care focuses on symptom relief, comfort and quality of life for patients with advanced or complex gynecologic malignancies.
