Uterine cancer surgery (commonly a hysterectomy) is one of the main treatments for uterine or endometrial cancer. The goal is to remove cancer from the uterus and prevent its spread to other parts of the body. This critical surgery is best performed by an experienced gynecologic oncologist.

Understanding Uterine Cancer Surgery
Types of Uterine Cancer Surgery
-
Total Hysterectomy Removal of the uterus and cervix. Commonly recommended for early-stage uterine cancer confined to the uterus.
-
Total Hysterectomy with Bilateral Salpingo-Oophorectomy Removal of uterus, cervix, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. Often advised for postmenopausal women or those at risk of hormone-related tumor growth.
-
Radical Hysterectomy (Wertheim’s Hysterectomy) Extensive procedure for advanced uterine cancer. Removes the uterus, cervix, part of the vagina, surrounding tissues, and pelvic lymph nodes.
-
Lymphadenectomy Removal of nearby lymph nodes to check cancer spread and determine staging.
Minimally Invasive Uterine Cancer Surgery
Modern techniques such as laparoscopic and robotic-assisted hysterectomy offer: smaller incisions, reduced blood loss, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery. These approaches are effective for many women with early-stage uterine cancer.
Recovery and Follow-Up Care
Recovery time varies based on the type of surgery and patient health.
Hospital stays may last from a few days to a week.
Post-surgery care includes pain management, light activity, and walking to prevent blood clots.
Regular follow-up visits with the oncologist are essential.
Additional treatments like radiation or chemotherapy may be recommended in certain cases to reduce recurrence risk.
Possible Risks & Complications
As with any major surgery, risks may include:
Infection or bleeding
Blood clots
Injury to nearby organs (bladder or intestines)
Vaginal shortening or narrowing
Early menopause (if ovaries are removed)
