Pediatric oncosurgery involves the surgical diagnosis and resection of solid tumors and cancers in infants and children. Surgical excision is integrated with chemotherapy and radiation to maximize cure rates while preserving healthy development.
Childhood cancers differ significantly from adult cancers:
Parents should seek evaluation for these persistent signs:
Complete surgical removal of solid tumor masses along with regional lymph nodes for oncology clearance.
Resection of the tumor while saving the kidney, vital for children with single or bilateral kidney tumors.
Daycare insertion of subcutaneous chemo ports (e.g., Chemoport) to allow painless administration of chemotherapy.
Staging scans (CT, MRI, Bone Scans) and biopsies are performed to evaluate the tumor stage and cell type.
Surgical resection is scheduled, often following pre-op chemotherapy, using micro-instruments to protect major blood vessels.
Coordination with medical oncologists to continue post-operative chemotherapy or radiation based on pathological margins.
"Our child was diagnosed with a large kidney tumor (Wilms tumor). Dr. Sujit did a clean resection, saving the child's life. Highly professional oncologist surgeon."
"Excellent coordination between oncology chemotherapy and surgery. Dr. Chowdhary's precision in removing the retroperitoneal tumor was outstanding."
"We are extremely grateful for Dr. Sujit's surgical expertise and compassionate handling of our child's cancer treatment journey."
"The precision in Dr. Chowdhary's surgery is incredible. His confidence gave us immense peace of mind during a very stressful time."
"The nursing staff and Dr. Sujit are a fantastic team. They handled our infant's surgery with so much care and warmth."
Oncosurgery is a precise field combining cancer resection with structural preservation. Timing, technique, and integrated protocols save lives.
Surgery is used for biopsy, complete removal of solid tumors, and placement of chemotherapy access devices (ports).
Wilms tumor (kidney), Neuroblastoma (adrenal/nerve tissue), Hepatoblastoma (liver), and rhabdomyosarcoma are the most common.
It depends on the tumor type. Often, chemotherapy is given first (neoadjuvant) to shrink the tumor and make surgical removal safer.
A chemo port is a small device placed under the skin to allow safe and painless administration of chemotherapy and blood draws.
Yes, whenever oncologically safe, modern techniques focus on preserving normal organ function and adjacent vital structures.
Typically, children stay in the hospital for 5 to 7 days, with chemotherapy resuming once the surgical incisions are fully healed.
Regular check-ups with scans (CT/MRI/Ultrasound) and blood tests are scheduled to monitor for recurrence and support healthy growth.
