Vulvar cancer is rare enough that many hospitals have limited experience managing it. Women from Aligarh deserve a specialist who has seen and operated on many such cases. Dr. Monisha Gupta at Fortis Hospital, Shalimar Bagh, New Delhi brings exactly that — fellowship-level training and hands-on experience from Tata Memorial Hospital, Mumbai, India’s busiest cancer centre.
Why Subspecialty Training Makes a Difference
Vulvar cancer surgery carries risks specific to this anatomy: wound breakdown after groin lymph node removal, lymphoedema of the legs, and the psychological impact of genital surgery. A Gynecologic Oncologist trained specifically in vulvar cancer surgery navigates these challenges with:
- Knowledge of sentinel lymph node biopsy to avoid routine groin dissection (and its complications) in eligible patients
- Skill in reconstruction techniques that restore appearance and function after wide excisions
- Experience in nerve-sparing approaches to preserve sexual sensation where possible
- Ability to coordinate preoperative or post-operative chemoradiation for locally advanced cases
Dr. Monisha Gupta’s Approach
Dr. Monisha treats each vulvar cancer patient as an individual. She discusses not just the surgical plan but also the expected functional and cosmetic outcomes, so that women from Aligarh — including those from Civil Lines, Medical Road, Marris Road, Ramghat Road — make fully informed decisions. She believes that the best oncological outcome and the best quality of life are not competing goals.
