Cervical cancer surgery requires a surgeon who performs radical pelvic operations regularly — not occasionally. Women from Rohtak treated by Dr. Monisha Gupta at Fortis Hospital, Shalimar Bagh, New Delhi benefit from subspecialty expertise that translates directly into better operative outcomes.
Surgical Options for Cervical Cancer
The recommended operation depends on stage and tumour size:
- Radical hysterectomy (Wertheim’s hysterectomy) — for Stage IA2 to IB2: removes the uterus, cervix, upper vagina and parametria (tissue around the cervix), along with pelvic lymph nodes
- Simple hysterectomy — for Stage IA1 where the cervix alone needs to be removed
- Radical trachelectomy — for young women with Stage IB1 disease who wish to preserve fertility (the cervix is removed but the uterus is kept)
- Pelvic lymph node dissection — integral to staging and planning radiation fields
Locally advanced cervical cancer (Stage IIB and beyond) is primarily treated with concurrent chemoradiation rather than surgery. Dr. Monisha co-ordinates this with the radiation oncology team at Fortis.
Why Patients from Rohtak Trust Fortis Delhi
Women from Rohtak — including those from Civil Lines, Model Town, Sector 14, Railway Road — choose Fortis Hospital because it combines a dedicated Gynecologic Oncologist with a full radiation therapy department and a medical oncology team under one roof. For cervical cancer, which often requires both surgery and radiation, this integration is particularly important.
