What is surgical oncology?
Surgical Oncology is a branch of medicine that focuses on the surgical treatment of cancer. It involves removing tumours and cancer-affected tissues through surgery. In many cases, surgery helps remove cancer when detected early. But surgical oncology isn’t just about removing cancer. It’s about helping patients heal and lead better lives after treatments. At Aster CMI Hospital, we combine advanced medical techniques with personalised care to make this happen.

When does surgical oncology helps?
Surgery is considered when:
- The cancer is localised
- It hasn’t spread to different parts of the body
- It needs to be removed to reduce pain or other symptoms
- It is necessary to perform a biopsy
- It is necessary to confirm the diagnosis
At Aster CMI Hospital, we combine surgical oncology with chemotherapy or radiation therapy. It helps improve results. Our experts help you understand the options and guide you toward the best decision for your health.

- Pain or discomfort
- Swelling or bruising
