Surgery is the oldest form of cancer treatment. This method has played a vital role in diagnosing cancer and finding out how far it has spread (stage of the cancer). The surgical method offers the greatest chance for cure of many types of cancer, especially those that have not spread to other parts of the body.

Cancer specialist at Shree Hospital utilizes latest surgical procedures to remove or treat the diseased part with either a minor or major operation. Less invasive operations are conducted to make the patient comfortable. Cancer surgery may be the only treatment for the patients, or it may be supplemented with other treatments, such as radiation and chemotherapy.

The objectives of the Department of Cancer Surgery are as follows:

• Cure or palliate and improve quality of life emphasizing on multimodal treatment.
• Practice evidence based medicine.
• To achieve minimal morbidity and near zero mortality which is acceptable by any international norms.
• Good preoperative preparation, careful preoperative monitoring, postoperative care.
