Oncosurgery
Oncosurgery is one of the key methods in combating cancer diseases, allowing for the removal of tumors and affected tissues with utmost precision. In the modern world, oncosurgery combines the achievements of medical science, high-tech equipment, and an individual approach to each patient. This not only helps extend life but also significantly improves its quality even at advanced stages of the disease.
The role of oncosurgery in cancer treatment
Surgical intervention remains the primary treatment method for most types of cancer, especially at early stages. For example, in the case of localized breast cancer, surgery achieves a 5-year survival rate in more than 90% of patients.
Modern oncosurgery goes far beyond standard tumor removal. Today, surgeons use minimally invasive methods such as laparoscopy and robotic systems, which help reduce the trauma of surgeries, speed up recovery, and improve aesthetic outcomes.
Important facts:
- More than 60% of patients diagnosed with cancer undergo surgical treatment at some stage of therapy.
- A combined approach (oncosurgery together with chemo- or radiation therapy) significantly enhances treatment effectiveness even at advanced stages of the disease.
- Advances in medicine over the past decades have opened new horizons in cancer treatment. Today, surgeries are performed using technologies such as:
- Robotic systems (for example, Da Vinci): allow complex operations to be performed with high precision, minimizing impact on healthy tissues. For instance, robotic surgery in prostate cancer reduces the likelihood of complications such as incontinence and erectile dysfunction.
- Intraoperative visualization: techniques such as fluorescent navigation help the surgeon see the tumor boundaries in real time, ensuring maximum radicality.
- Organ-preserving surgeries: especially in demand for breast cancer and kidney cancer. These methods allow the removal of the tumor while preserving the organ and its functions.
Timely oncosurgery can significantly affect prognosis:
- In colorectal cancer, early surgery increases the 5-year survival rate from 60% to more than 90%.
- Organ-preserving surgeries in breast cancer combined with radiation therapy provide the same survival rate as total mastectomy, while preserving the aesthetic appearance of the breast.
- In lung cancer, early-stage surgery increases the chances of a complete cure up to 70%.

How we help
- Clinic and specialist selection: based on your diagnosis, stage of disease, and personal preferences, we select the best medical institutions and surgeons to ensure successful treatment.
- Consultations: we organize meetings with experts who will explain all possible treatment options and help make an informed decision.
- Comprehensive support: from organizing the trip to coordinating all stages of treatment and rehabilitation.
- Emotional support: we understand that fighting cancer is not only a medical but also a psychological challenge, so we provide support at all levels.
Advantages of modern methods
Modern oncosurgical methods help patients not only fight the disease but also live fully after treatment. Thanks to minimally invasive technologies, patients return to normal life faster, and the high precision of operations reduces the risk of recurrence. Moreover, oncosurgery increasingly works in tandem with genetic testing. DNA analysis of the tumor not only helps choose the right treatment method but also predicts the likelihood of recurrence, becoming an important step in personalized medicine.
Oncosurgery is not just about removing the tumor but also a step towards a new quality of life. With Alisa Health Group, you gain access to advanced methods and the best world specialists, ready to support you at every stage of treatment.
