Treatment Of Uterine Cancer In India
Uterine (Endometrial) cancer originates in the
female reproductive system and generally affects
postmenopausal women between ages 50 and 60. It
develops in the body of the uterus or womb whose
wall has an inner lining (called the endometrium)
and an outer layer of muscle tissue (called the
myometrium). Endometrial cancer (Uterine Cancer)
is often detected at an early stage because it
frequently produces vaginal bleeding between
menstrual periods or after menopause. If
discovered early, this slow-growing cancer is
likely to be confined to the uterus. Removing the
uterus surgically (Hysterectomy) successfully
eliminates endometrial cancer, if detected and
carried out in the initial stages.

Diagnosis of Uterine Cancer
  • Hysteroscopy A thin telescope known as a
    hysteroscope is used and is passed through the
    cervix into the uterus. This telescope helps in
    viewing the lining of the uterus and tissue
    samples (a biopsy) of abnormal areas can also be
    taken.
  • Endometrial Sampling A thin tube is passed in
    the uterus for obtaining small samples of the
    endometrium by using mild suction. This procedure
    is performed on an out-patient basis. Abnormal
    cancer cells in the sample are then examined
    under a microscope.
  • Ultrasound Scan of the Uterus This test is
    considered as a primary test for determining
    uterine cancer. This painless and safe scan makes
    use of sound waves for creating images of the
    structures within the body and also of the
    organs. Ultrasound scan of the uterus is used
    frequently in pregnant women. The womb of a woman
    can be scanned by placing the probe of a scanner
    on the abdomen. The placement of a small probe is
    also done within the vagina for scanning the
    uterus from a specific angle.

  •   Uterine Cancer
    Treatment 
  • Radiation Therapy  High-energy radiation beams
    are used in this therapy for killing the cancer
    cells. Radiation therapy is also recommended for
    reducing the risk of recurrence after surger.
  • Surgery  Surgery is considered as the most
    recommended treatment option for uterine cancer.
    A surgical procedure is performed for removing
    the uterus (hysterectomy), ovaries and fallopian
    tubes. Surgery also helps in determining the
    extent of the cancer that has spread in the other
    areas around the uterus.
  • Chemotherapy  Certain types of chemicals are
    used for killing the cancer cells. One or more
    chemotherapy drugs may also be combined. The
    injection of these drugs can be done either
    through the mouth or into the veins. Women who
    are suffering from recurrent or advanced stage of
    uterine cancer that has spread beyond the uterus
    are treated with the help of chemotherapy.
  • Hormone Therapy  The hormone levels in the
    body can get affected by taking certain
    medications. This therapy is ideal for those who
    are suffering from advanced uterine cancer that
    has spread beyond the uterus.
