an operation to remove part of your body to diagnose or treat cancer — remains the foundation of cancer treatment. Whether you opt to undergo additional cancer treatment depends on your type of cancer, its stage and your overall health status. Cancer surgery is done for various reasons: To remove the cancerous tissue if it is localized and hasn’t spread. At times surgery is used to improve your quality of life rather than to treat the cancer itself — for example, to relieve pain caused by a tumor that's pressing on a nerve or bone or to remove a tumor that's blocking your intestine. Certain cancer surgeries are done in order to define the how advanced the cancer is – this is called staging. As part of staging sometimes the surrounding lymph nodes are tested to evaluate if the cancer has spread to the lymph nodes. Surgery is often combined with other cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiation. Occasionally normal tissue is removed in order to prevent cancer from occurring in those organs in patients who have a genetic disease that can cause cancer.
