Introduction
Head and neck cancers affect vital areas like the mouth, throat, and voice box, making early
diagnosis and treatment crucial. Dr. Jay Ramchandani, an expert Surgical Oncologist at
Cancer Care Centre, provides advanced surgical care tailored to the unique challenges of
these cancers. His approach focuses not only on removing tumors but also on preserving
important functions like speaking and swallowing. Patients often feel overwhelmed by such a
diagnosis, but with his guidance, outcomes and quality of life have significantly improved.
Common Types of Head and Neck Cancer Surgery
● Glossectomy: Removal of part or all of the tongue.
● Laryngectomy: Removal of the voice box (larynx).
● Neck Dissection: Removal of lymph nodes to prevent cancer spread.
● Endoscopic Laser Surgery: Minimally invasive method for small tumors.
At Cancer Care Centre, Dr. Jay Ramchandani carefully evaluates each case, ensuring the
right balance between cancer removal and quality of life.
Preparing for Surgery
Preparation often includes imaging scans (CT, MRI, PET), pre-operative counseling for speech
and swallowing, and nutritional guidance. Dr. Ramchandani personally explains the
treatment journey to his patients, helping them cope better with surgery and recovery.
The Surgery: What Happens
Depending on the tumor, surgery may be minimally invasive or more complex. Reconstruction is
often done immediately to restore appearance and function. With advanced techniques and
precision, Dr. Jay Ramchandani ensures safer outcomes and faster recovery.
Recovery and Rehabilitation
Post-surgery recovery involves wound care, pain management, and sometimes temporary
feeding support. Rehabilitation specialists at Cancer Care Centre work with patients on
regaining speech and swallowing abilities. Emotional recovery is equally important, and support
services are readily available.
Conclusion
Head and neck cancer surgery is complex but life-saving. With Dr. Jay Ramchandani’s
expertise in Surgical Oncology at Cancer Care Centre, patients can achieve both survival
and improved quality of life.
