Can other types of surgery help treat cancer?


There are several specialized surgeries used during cancer treatment. The following is a list of some of these surgical treatments:

  • Cryosurgery


This surgery technique uses extremely cold temperatures to kill cancer cells. Cryosurgery is used most often with skin cancer and cervical cancer. Depending on whether the tumor is inside or outside the body, liquid nitrogen is placed on the skin or in an instrument called a cryoprobe (which is inserted into the body so that it touches the tumor). Cryosurgery is being evaluated as a surgical treatment for several types of cancers.

  • Laser surgery


This technique uses beams of light energy instead of instruments to remove very small cancers (without damaging surrounding tissue), to shrink or destroy tumors, or to activate drugs to kill cancer cells. Laser surgery is a very precise procedure that can be used to treat areas of the body that are difficult to reach including the skin, cervix, rectum, and larynx.

  • Electrosurgery


Skin cancer and oral cancer are sometimes treated with electrosurgery. This technique uses electrical current to kill cancer cells.

  • Microscopically controlled surgery


This surgery is useful when cancer affects delicate parts of the body, such as the eye. Layers of skin are removed and examined microscopically until cancerous cells cannot be detected.
