Gynaecologic Surgical Oncology

The scope of the services we offer includes: 

• Minimally invasive and robotic hysterectomy
• Fertility-sparing treatments
• Personalised hormone management post-surgery

• Specialised services
  • Pap-Smear test: Collection of cells from the cervix using a specialised brush and observing them under a microscope to check for abnormal, cancerous changes; it is crucial for the early detection and prevention of cervical cancer.
  • Colposcopy and vaccination against human papilloma virus (HPV) for cervical cancer prevention: Colposcopy is a diagnostic procedure used to closely observe the cervix and vaginal wall, to diagnose cervical cancer, which is caused by certain types of HPV. We also assist patients with vaccination against these HPV types.
  • Genetic counselling and BRCA screening 

• Advanced surgical techniques
  • Robotic radical hysterectomy: Minimally invasive robotic system-guided surgery performed via small incisions in the abdomen to remove the uterus, cervix, and/or surrounding tissues affected with cancer; this maximises tumour removal while minimising the impact on the surrounding organs.
  • Ovarian tissue cryopreservation: The laparoscopy-guided removal of a woman’s ovarian tissues, especially prior to cancer treatments, and freezing in liquid nitrogen (cryopreservation); this represents an efficient fertility-preserving method for young women with cancer.
  • Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC): A two-step procedure combines surgery with heated chemotherapy, injected directly into the abdomen; this is a useful method for treating advanced ovarian cancer.
  • Pelvic floor reconstruction: This helps ensure long-term pelvic health and function.
