Cancer removal, also known as tumor resection, is a surgical procedure aimed at excising cancerous tissue from the body. This process is often performed when the cancer is localized and has not spread extensively. The goal is to eliminate as much of the cancer as possible to improve the patient's chances of recovery. In some cases, radiation therapy or chemotherapy may be used in conjunction with surgery to shrink tumors before removal or to kill any remaining cancer cells afterward. The specific approach depends on the type and stage of cancer, as well as the patient's overall health.
