Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy (SLNB) is a surgical procedure used to determine whether cancer has spread from the primary site into the lymphatic system. It is commonly utilized in breast cancer and melanoma treatments, helping avoid global clearance of auxiliary nodes when unnecessary, which reduces swelling risks (lymphedema).
Breast Conservation Surgery (BCS), also called lumpectomy, removes the tumor along with a safety margin of normal surrounding breast tissue, preserving the remaining breast shape. This is typically combined with post-operative radiotherapy and oncoplastic rebuilding.
Radical head and neck surgery addresses tumors of the oral cavity, larynx, and salivary glands, requiring advanced margins control and aesthetic reconstructive skill.
Thyroidectomy (partial or total) addresses nodular lesions and thyroid cancer. Dr. Rajesh integrates cosmetic micro-incisions and neuromonitoring to protect vocal cord function (recurrent laryngeal nerve safety).
Address cancer of the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, hepato-pancreato-biliary systems, colon, and rectum.
For peritoneal cancers that have spread throughout the abdomen, advanced treatments like Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) combined with Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) are utilized, delivering heated chemotherapy directly into the peritoneal cavity during surgery to eradicate microscopic remnants.
Robotic surgery offers surgeons high-definition 3D visualization and wristed instrument manipulation. This is highly beneficial in the narrow pelvic cavity for treating gynecological malignancies (uterine, cervical, ovarian cancers) and genito-urinary conditions, ensuring extreme precision, reduced blood loss, minimal scarring, and quick recovery.
Prevention is the primary shield. Many cancers (like lung, skin, and GI cancers) can be prevented through conscious lifestyle parameters (Vayu): avoiding tobacco, maintaining balanced nutrition, and managing stress.
Regular screenings (breast mammography, Pap smear, oral exam) help identify cellular modifications early, ensuring complete cure. Early warning signs include unexplained weight loss, persistent lumps, cough, or bowel habit modifications.
