Reconstructive Surgeries
Reconstruction after cancer surgeries aims to restore physical appearance and function. Breast reconstruction uses implants or tissue transfer. In head and neck surgeries, grafts and flaps repair defects. Limb-sparing surgeries combine prosthetics or bone grafts. Each reconstruction method is tailored to the patient's needs, enhancing their quality of life and self-esteem.
Palliative care
Palliative care in cancer surgery focuses on alleviating symptoms and improving the quality of life for patients. It includes pain management, psychological support, and addressing emotional, spiritual, and social needs. Palliative care teams work collaboratively to ensure holistic care, promoting comfort and dignity throughout the surgical journey, even in advanced stages of cancer.
