When it comes to cancer treatment, surgery plays a crucial role in both removing tumors and improving a patient’s chances of recovery. At Iswarya Hospital, Chennai, patients have access to one of India’s leading surgical oncologists Prof. Dr. S. Rajasundaram, who brings over 30 years of expertise in complex cancer surgeries.

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in India, and early surgical intervention is key to successful treatment. Dr. Rajasundaram performs procedures like:

1. Lumpectomy: Removal of the tumor while preserving the rest of the breast.
2. Mastectomy: Complete removal of one or both breasts, depending on the stage.
3. Reconstructive surgery: To help patients restore the breast’s appearance after mastectomy.

This includes cancers of the esophagus, stomach, colon, rectum, and pancreas. The surgeries are often complex and require precision:

1. Colectomy (colon removal)
2. Gastrectomy (removal of the stomach)
3. Whipple procedure (for pancreatic cancer)

Dr. Rajasundaram’s advanced techniques help ensure faster recovery and reduced complications.

Liver, gallbladder, and bile duct cancers fall under this category. These surgeries are highly specialized and demand extensive surgical skill.

1. Liver resection for removing tumors
2. Gallbladder removal for gallbladder cancer
3. Bile duct reconstruction for effective drainage

Surgeries for ovarian, uterine, cervical, and vulvar cancers are carried out with extreme care to preserve surrounding organs and functions.

1. Hysterectomy (removal of uterus)
2. Oophorectomy (removal of ovaries)

With robotic surgical systems, Dr. Rajasundaram performs procedures with greater precision and minimal scarring. This technique is used across various cancer types and helps patients recover faster with less pain.

1. Expert leadership under Dr. Rajasundaram
