Gynecological Cancers & Benign Surgeries
Comprehensive surgical staging and treatment for Uterine/Endometrial cancer, Ovarian tumors, Cervical cancer, and complex benign fibroids/ovarian cysts.
Clinical Focus: Gynecological oncology encompasses the diagnosis, surgical staging, and cytoreductive management of malignancies affecting the female reproductive tract. Dr. Malyadri Paladugu provides specialized surgical care for uterine, ovarian, cervical, and vulvar cancers, offering both advanced laparoscopic/robotic hysterectomies and radical open cytoreductive procedures.
Conditions Evaluated & Surgically Managed
- Endometrial / Uterine Cancer: Post-menopausal bleeding evaluation, Laparoscopic/Robotic Radical Hysterectomy, Bilateral Salpingo-Oophorectomy, and Pelvic/Para-Aortic Lymph Node Staging.
- Ovarian Cancer (Epithelial & Germ Cell): Complete surgical staging, primary and interval Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS), and complex pelvic peritonectomy.
- Cervical Cancer: Radical Hysterectomy (Wertheim’s Operation) with bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy for early-stage disease; surgical staging for locally advanced tumors.
- Vulvar & Vaginal Malignancies: Radical Vulvectomy with inguinofemoral lymph node dissection.
- Complex Benign Gynecological Conditions: Large uterine fibroids, severe endometriosis, ovarian dermoid cysts, and total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH).
Comprehensive Pre-Operative Diagnostic Protocol
Endometrial Biopsy / Pipelle
Office pipelle sampling or hysteroscopic D&C for histopathological and molecular subtype confirmation.
Tumor Marker Panel
Serum CA-125, HE4, CEA, CA 19-9, Beta-hCG, and AFP with ROMA score calculation for pelvic masses.
Pelvic MRI & PET-CT Staging
High-resolution dedicated Pelvic MRI with contrast to evaluate myometrial invasion depth and cervical stromal involvement.
Operative Precision & Survivorship Care
- Optimal Cytoreduction: Striving for complete gross resection (R0 resection) in ovarian malignancies, the single most critical prognostic factor for survival.
- Nerve-Sparing Radical Dissections: Preserving bladder and bowel autonomic nerves to prevent post-operative urinary retention and dysfunction.
- Fertility-Sparing Oncology: In carefully selected young patients with early-stage disease, exploring fertility-preserving surgical alternatives.
- Post-Surgical Tumor Board Review: Coordinating adjuvant chemotherapy or brachytherapy/radiation protocols based on final histopathology.
