Surgical Treatment in Uterine Cancer is Shaped According to the Stage of the Disease

Op. Dr. Şehadet Özden, Obstetrics and Gynecology Specialist at Medical Park Tokat Hospital, stated that surgical treatment in uterine cancer is planned according to the stage of the disease, tumor characteristics, and the patient's general state of health.

Obstetrics and Gynecology Specialist Op. Dr. Şehadet Özden stated that the patient's general health status, anesthesia risks, and fertility expectations are taken into consideration in uterine cancer surgical planning. While the removal of the uterus and ovaries is generally preferred in the early stage, lymph nodes can also be included in the operation in risky situations. In some young patients at an appropriate stage, preserving the ovaries can be evaluated.
