Patient's question:
There is a malignant tumor weighing 3.4 pounds in my pelvis. I have been undergoing surgery for 3 days. During the surgery, my uterus and ovarian tumors were removed. There is some adhesion in the intestinal tract, which was also completely removed. Now, I want to know if it is easy for pelvic cancer to recur after treatment?Doctor's answer:
If there are masses such as tubal hydrops or tubal-ovarian cysts, surgical treatment can be performed; if there are small infection foci that repeatedly cause cancer, surgical treatment is also advisable. The principle of surgery is to achieve complete cure, avoiding the residual lesions from having the opportunity to recur. Unilateral adnexal resection or total hysterectomy combined with bilateral adnexal resection can be performed. For young women, ovarian function should be preserved as much as possible.
