What is Endometrial Cancer?
Endometrial cancer originates in the lining of the uterus (endometrium) and is one of the most common gynecologic cancers. Early detection is critical for effective treatment, and symptoms like abnormal uterine bleeding, pelvic pain, or postmenopausal bleeding should prompt immediate medical attention.
Treatment Options for Endometrial Cancer
Our multidisciplinary approach combines advanced surgical methods with tailored oncologic treatments, ensuring a holistic and effective treatment plan.
Surgical Treatment
Surgery is often the primary treatment for endometrial cancer, involving the removal of the uterus (hysterectomy) along with surrounding tissues, depending on the stage and spread of the cancer.
Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Surgery
Our center specializes in robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery for endometrial cancer, offering numerous benefits:
-
Minimally Invasive Approach: Small incisions mean less scarring, reduced risk of infection, and faster recovery.
-
Precision and Accuracy: Robotic systems allow surgeons to perform highly precise operations.
-
Shorter Hospital Stays: Patients typically experience less postoperative pain and quicker returns to daily activities.
Open Surgery
For advanced stages or complex cases, open surgery may be required to ensure complete removal of the cancer.
Oncological Treatments
In addition to surgery, patients may require additional treatments to prevent recurrence and ensure comprehensive care. These include:
-
Adjuvant Therapy: Post-surgical treatments to target residual cancer cells and reduce recurrence risk.
-
Chemotherapy: Uses powerful drugs to kill or inhibit cancer cell growth.
-
Radiation Therapy: High-energy beams target cancer cells in the pelvic region.
-
Hormonal Therapy: Recommended for cancers that respond to hormone treatments, especially for recurrent or advanced cases.
-
-
Targeted Therapy and Immunotherapy: Cutting-edge options tailored to the cancer’s specific genetic and molecular characteristics.
Neoadjuvant Therapy
In select cases, chemotherapy or radiation may be administered before surgery to shrink the tumor, facilitating a more effective surgical outcome.
Pre-Treatment Evaluations
Before treatment, a series of comprehensive evaluations is performed to ensure the best outcomes:
-
Gynecologic Assessment: Detailed examination of the reproductive system, imaging, and biopsies to determine cancer stage and spread.
-
Endocrinology Consultation: Evaluates hormone levels and manages metabolic conditions that could affect recovery.
-
Psychological Support: Emotional well-being is critical, and our team provides support and counseling to prepare you for the treatment process.
-
Nutritional Counseling: A dietitian will create a tailored nutrition plan to support your recovery and long-term health.
Step-by-step Treatment Journey
• Patients who travel to our country for treatment are admitted to the hospital one day prior to their scheduled surgery.
• Comprehensive information regarding both pre-operative and post-operative planning is provided directly by the attending physician and clinical nursing staff.
• Pathology results are typically available within one week. Patients are informed of any additional treatment options, such as chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or targeted therapies, that may be required.
• The hospital stay typically lasts 5 to 7 days. Following discharge, patients stay an additional 7 days at a hotel arranged by our health tourism agency. After a follow-up consultation, patients with no complications are cleared to return to their home countries by air.
