Problems during surgery may include:

• damage to organs in the body

• adverse reactions to medication

Problems after surgery may include:

• pain or discomfort (a common problem following surgery that can often be relieved with medication and with the help of your cancer care team)
• infections
• other illnesses, such as pneumonia
• blood loss or clots
