GI CANCER SURGERIES

About GI Cancer Surgeries

Gastrointestinal (GI) cancer surgeries involve the removal of malignant tumors from the digestive tract, including the esophagus, stomach, intestines, pancreas, liver, and colon. These surgeries aim to eliminate cancer, prevent spread, and restore function. They may be performed using open, laparoscopic, or robotic-assisted techniques for optimal outcomes.

Types of GI Cancer Surgery

GI cancer surgeries vary based on the organ affected, aiming to remove tumors, prevent spread, and restore digestive function using open or minimally invasive techniques.
