At Max Institute of Cancer Care (MICC), the Gynaecologic Oncology DMG (Disease Management Group) provides customised treatment to every patient after discussion in great depth. It has been appreciated all over and has won awards at a national level. We also regularly discuss our patients at the National Cancer Grid Virtual Tumor Boards. Genetic and molecular information is routinely incorporated in order to provide personalised and precise treatment.
Our treatment for gynaecologic cancer begins by staging the disease. Cancer staging describes the size and extent of the disease in the body and whether it has spread from its original site to other parts of the body. To find out the stage of a gynaecologic cancer, the doctor may perform several tests.
The test results will help the doctor develop the best possible treatment plan and can be used to ascertain the likely outcome or course of the disease.
There are things you can do that may help lower your chance of getting them or help to find them early. It is important to detect cancers early, when treatment can be most effective.
a. Pay attention to your body and know what is normal for you. If you have any abnormal vaginal bleeding, or if you have any other signs and symptoms raising suspicion of gynaecologic cancer for two weeks or longer, talk to your doctor right away.
b. Make healthy lifestyle choices. For overall good health, eat a diet rich in fruits and vegetables; exercise regularly; maintain a healthy weight; avoid smoking, and practice safe sex.
c. Get the Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, if you are at an age when it is recommended. It protects against the types of HPV that most often cause cervical, vaginal, and vulvar cancers. The vaccine is recommended for girls and women aged between 9-25 yrs. A gynaecologist should be consulted for recommendations of Pap testing. The Pap test does not screen for ovarian, uterine, vaginal, or vulvar cancers.
Max Institute of Cancer Care (MICC) offers different types and combinations of gynecological cancer treatment. These depend on the type and stage at which it is diagnosed. Possible treatments include:
A) Surgery: The extent or possibility of surgery depends on the type of cancer and the patient's overall health.
Following are the surgical treatment options provided at MICC:
B) Chemotherapy: The doctor uses drugs to stop or slow the growth of cancer cells. These drugs are given along with fluids over some time and repeated at regular intervals. These drugs can cause temporary alopecia (hair fall), nausea and vomiting (controlled by drugs) and fall in blood counts (temporary - reversed by medicine). Side effects usually get better or go away when chemotherapy is over.
C) Radiation Therapy: A doctor uses high doses of radiation-high-energy rays-to kill cancer cells and stops them from spreading. Radiation therapy does not hurt while it is being given, but it can cause side effects. The latest form of radiation right beam causes minimum side effects with very high control.
