Types of Gynecologic Cancer Treated at BMCHRC

This specialty focuses on treating cancers of the female reproductive system. Our specialised team holds years of experience in managing the following gynecologic cancers with high expertise:

Treatment Planning for Gynecologic Cancers at BMCHRC

To determine the type and stage of the cancer, our gynecologic oncologists perform a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation, including a thorough pelvic examination, ultrasound, other imaging tests, and blood tests. Depending upon the diagnostic details, our experts may recommend minimally invasive surgeries over other invasive treatments to eliminate cancer. Our team will also perform a comprehensive risk assessment to analyse whether you will be able to safely tolerate the treatment. We will take all the measures to enhance the success rate of the treatment.

Surgical Options for Gynecologic Cancers

Depending upon the type and stage of gynecologic cancers, the following are the surgeries recommended:

Other Treatments

Prophylactic (preventive) surgery, recommended to reduce the risk of developing cancer, is also performed at BMCHRC. This surgery is advised only after a comprehensive risk–benefit assessment confirms that the potential benefits clearly outweigh the associated risks. Apart from surgery, your treatments may also be recommended, including chemotherapy, targeted therapy, hormone therapy, and immunotherapy, either alone or in combination. In the case of inoperable or surgically complex tumors or those who have a high risk of local recurrence, radiation therapy is recommended. BMCHRC facilitates intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) that spares normal tissue from radiation exposure, lowering the risk of side effects.

Fertility-sparing Treatment Options

Some gynecologic cancer therapies might affect your fertility, making it more challenging or impossible for you to conceive or carry a child to term. Our team will address your queries and concerns so that you can make an informed decision. If the patient expresses the intent to preserve their fertility, we’ll discuss fertility-sparing plans early in the treatment process while weighing the risks and benefits.

Pain Management

Pain is the common early symptom of gynecologic cancer. It often happens when a tumor compresses nerves, bones, or organs. Pain also happens after the treatment, including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. At BMCHRC, palliative care experts are part of our multidisciplinary gynecologic cancer care team who evaluate, treat, and manage pain. 

Supportive Care at BMCHRC

Both cancer and cancer treatments may badly affect the physical and emotional health of the patients. Supportive care is necessary to manage fatigue, nausea and vomiting, neuropathy, mouth sores, and mental depression. At BMCHRC, we follow a whole-person model of care by helping patients to connect with supportive care clinicians.
