Surgical interventions for oncologic diseases

Malignancies in the body may require these types of surgical interventions:

• Diagnostic. The surgical method of diagnosis is a biopsy. This procedure is aimed at confirming or ruling out a cancer diagnosis, determining the type of disease or its stage. In a biopsy, the surgeon’s job is to separate a small piece of tissue from a suspicious or damaged area and check it for cancer cells. MDI Clinic specialists perform biopsies under the control of modern imaging devices, including ultrasound, MRI or CT. By utilizing these ancillary examination methods, the accuracy of the analysis performed is greatly improved.
• Treatment. The medical center performs all possible surgical interventions aimed at removing tumors, tissues or parts of organs to which the disease has spread. In the most difficult situations, the affected organ is completely removed. Surgical method of oncology treatment is deservedly considered one of the most effective and often leads to full recovery of the patient. Surgery is most often prescribed in conjunction with radiation or chemotherapy. The goals of these procedures can vary, including turning inoperable tumors into operable tumors, reducing the size of the affected area, or removing residual cancer cells after surgery.
• Cytoreduction. Designed to remove tumor tissue that is visible to the naked eye. Most often such operations are performed when metastases form in the abdominal cavity. The surgical intervention is complemented by intraperitoneal chemotherapy – the injection of a drug for the abdominal cavity immediately after the operation, even before suturing.
• Tissue Reconstruction. This type of surgical procedure provides an opportunity to restore the appearance or function of an organ after major cancer surgery. This is how the mammary glands, larynx, bladder and other damaged organs are repaired.
• Prevention. Surgical operations that prevent the development of cancer are performed strictly according to the doctor’s prescription. In this case, fragments of tissue that may be affected by the cancer are removed.

How are gynecologic surgeries performed at MDI Clinic?

MDI Clinic specialists perform effective surgeries for cancer treatment in Israel. Professional surgeons utilize exceptionally advanced surgical techniques, which include:

Minor invasive therapy. The technique, called the “keyhole method,” allows surgeons to perform all manipulations through minimally sized punctures or natural openings such as the vagina or urethra. Thanks to this technique, the risk of complications is significantly reduced and the attractive appearance of the body area is preserved, without large scars and ugly scars. Minor invasive techniques are aimed at the patient’s early recovery and return to normal life.

Robot-assisted surgery is a unique way to perform surgical interventions. MDI Clinic specialists are among the few in Israel and around the world who use robotics for surgery. The Da Vinci system is a robotic surgeon whose tasks include facilitating the most complex interventions, eliminating the negative impact of the human factor, and increasing the efficiency of surgery.
