Infertility & Subfertility

Comprehensive Care for Female Reproductive Cancers

Dr. Neha Dagade offers specialized expertise in the screening, diagnosis, and surgical management of cancers affecting the female reproductive system. Combining her advanced training in Minimal Access Surgery with a focus on Onco-fertility, she provides patients with cutting-edge treatment options that prioritize both oncological safety and post-operative quality of life.

What is Gynecological Oncology?

Gynecological Oncology is a specialized field of medicine that focuses on cancers of the female reproductive system. These include cancers of the cervix, ovaries, uterus (endometrium), fallopian tubes, vagina, and vulva.
Early detection and precise surgical intervention are the pillars of successful cancer treatment. Dr. Dagade utilizes advanced laparoscopic and hysteroscopic techniques to perform radical surgeries that were traditionally done via large open incisions.

Gynecological Malignancies Treated

We provide expert evaluation and surgical management for:

  • Cervical Cancer:Comprehensive screening (Pap smears/HPV testing) and radical surgical interventions.
  • Ovarian Cancer: Diagnostic laparoscopy for staging and debulking surgeries for ovarian malignancies.
  • Endometrial (Uterine) Cancer: Management of abnormal uterine bleeding and surgical removal of the uterus and lymph nodes.
  • Gestational Trophoblastic Neoplasia (GTN): Specialized care for rare tumors that arise from pregnancy-related cells.

Advanced Surgical Procedures

Dr. Neha Dagade specializes in "Minimally Invasive Onco-Surgery," which offers significant recovery advantages for cancer patients:

  • Laparoscopic Radical Hysterectomy: Comprehensive removal of the uterus, cervix, and surrounding tissues for cervical or uterine cancers.
  • Laparoscopic Pelvic & Para-aortic Lymph Node Dissection: A precise technique to determine the spread of cancer without large abdominal scars.
  • Laparoscopic Omentectomy: Removal of the omentum (a fatty layer in the abdomen), often required in ovarian cancer staging.
  • Hysteroscopy-Guided Biopsy: Direct visualization and sampling of the uterine lining for accurate diagnosis of endometrial cancer.
  • Onco-Fertility (Fertility-Sparing Surgery): For young patients with early-stage cancers, Dr. Dagade explores surgical options that preserve the ovaries or uterus, allowing for future childbearing.
The Minimally Invasive Advantage in Oncology

Treating cancer through laparoscopy rather than traditional "open" surgery offers critical benefits for patients who may need follow-up chemotherapy or radiation:

Feature Minimally Invasive Onco-Surgery Traditional Open Onco-Surgery
Recovery Time Faster (Starts adjuvant therapy sooner) Delayed (Requires long wound healing)
Immune Response Better preserved due to minimal trauma Suppressed due to major surgical stress
Visibility High-definition magnification of tumors Standard human eye visibility
Hospital Stay 2–3 days 7–10 days
Why Choose Dr. Neha Dagade for Oncology Support?
  • Precision Staging: Accurate laparoscopic staging ensures that the patient receives the exact intensity of chemotherapy or radiation required.
  • Multidisciplinary Approach: Dr. Dagade works closely with Medical Oncologists and Radiologists to provide a "Tumor Board" style of comprehensive care.
  • Empathetic Care: We understand the emotional burden of a cancer diagnosis and provide a supportive environment for both patients and their families.
