Areas of Expertise and Treatments
Cytoreductive surgery is an extensive surgical procedure used in selected patients with cancers that have spread within the abdominal or peritoneal cavity, with the goal of removing visible tumour deposits.
HIPEC delivers heated chemotherapy directly into the abdominal cavity after cytoreductive surgery in selected patients with peritoneal surface malignancies.
PIPAC delivers aerosolised chemotherapy under pressure into the abdominal cavity through minimally invasive surgery and may be considered in selected recurrent or treatment-resistant peritoneal cancers.
Stomach cancer surgery involves removal of part or all of the stomach depending on tumour location and stage, often together with regional lymph-node dissection.
Colorectal cancer surgery aims to remove the tumour and affected bowel segment while preserving bowel function whenever clinically feasible.
Sphincter-preserving rectal surgery aims to remove selected rectal tumours while avoiding a permanent stoma when oncologically and technically appropriate.
Appendiceal cancer surgery is tailored to tumour type and disease extent and may include cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC when there is selected peritoneal spread.
Pancreatic cancer surgery may involve complex procedures to remove tumours that are considered surgically resectable following multidisciplinary evaluation.
Liver cancer surgery involves removal of selected liver tumours while preserving adequate healthy liver tissue and function.
Ovarian cancer surgery may involve removal of visible tumour deposits and affected reproductive or abdominal structures as part of cytoreductive cancer treatment.
Gynaecological cancer surgery includes surgical management of cancers affecting the ovary, uterus, cervix and related pelvic structures.
Fertility-preserving surgery may be considered for carefully selected younger patients with certain early-stage gynaecological cancers when clinically appropriate.
Surgery for gastrointestinal stromal tumours aims to remove suitable tumours while preserving normal gastrointestinal function wherever possible.
Surgery may be considered for selected neuroendocrine tumours based on tumour location, extent, biological behaviour and multidisciplinary assessment.
Surgery for abdominal and retroperitoneal sarcomas often requires complex oncological resection planned according to tumour size, location and involvement of surrounding structures.
Laparoscopic cancer surgery uses minimally invasive techniques for selected tumours and may reduce incision size and recovery time while maintaining oncological principles.
Robotic-assisted surgery provides enhanced visualisation and instrument precision for selected complex oncological procedures.
