At Yashoda Medicity, the Surgical Oncology Department is dedicated to providing comprehensive, state-of-the-art surgical care for cancers across all organ systems. Our goal is to achieve complete tumor removal while preserving function, aesthetics, and overall quality of life.
We specialize in treating cancers of the breast, head and neck, gastrointestinal and genitourinary systems, uro-oncology, soft tissue tumors, and more. Alongside tumor removal, our team also performs complex reconstructive surgeries to restore both form and function.
With advanced surgical innovation including minimally invasive and robotic-assisted techniques, we ensure precision, reduced trauma, and faster recovery for our patients. Supported by a multidisciplinary team of oncologists, radiologists, pathologists, anesthesiologists, and rehabilitation experts, we deliver personalized treatment plans that align with global standards and prioritize long-term survival.
Surgical oncology encompasses a variety of surgical techniques tailored to treat different types of cancers. The choice of technique depends on the type and stage of cancer, as well as the patient’s overall health.
Here are the main types of approaches in surgical oncology:
Open or traditional surgery involves larger incisions to directly access the tumor and surrounding tissue. It is used in cases where:
Tumors are large or complex
Detailed exploration is required
Comprehensive resections are needed
Emergency situations arise
Minimally invasive surgery focuses on achieving effective tumor clearance through smaller incisions, ensuring faster recovery and minimal disruption to surrounding structures. Techniques include:
Laparoscopic Surgery
Thoracoscopic Surgery
Endoscopic Surgery
Robotic-assisted surgery represents the highest level of precision in surgical oncology. Using systems such as the da Vinci Surgical System, surgeons operate with enhanced dexterity, 3D visualization, and superior control.
Benefits include:
Greater surgical precision
Reduced trauma and blood loss
Faster recovery and shorter hospital stays
Early mobilization of patients

A patient diagnosed with a tumour in the head of the pancreas presented for specialised evaluation and management. Given the complexity of the condition, a detailed clinical assessment and surgical planning were undertaken by the expert team.
The patient was planned for a Robotic Pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple’s Procedure), a highly specialised surgery used to treat tumours in this region. The procedure was performed under the expertise of Dr. Syed Asim Rizvi, Principal Director – Surgical Oncology and Robotic Surgery, along with his team, using advanced robotic surgical technology.

The procedure was performed under the expertise of Dr. Syed Asim Rizvi, Principal Director – Surgical Oncology and Robotic Surgery, along with his team, using advanced robotic surgical technology.
The robotic approach provided enhanced precision and superior visualisation, enabling meticulous removal of the tumour while preserving surrounding structures. This minimally invasive technique also helped reduce intraoperative blood loss and supported a more controlled surgical environment.
The patient demonstrated a smooth postoperative recovery with reduced pain, early mobilisation, and overall improved comfort. He was discharged in stable condition.
This case highlights the role of advanced robotic surgery in managing complex pancreatic tumours, combining surgical expertise with precision technology to achieve optimal patient outcomes.

A 39-year-old patient from Nairobi presented with symptoms of obstructive jaundice and required urgent evaluation. A comprehensive diagnostic workup, including advanced imaging and endoscopic assessment, confirmed the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.
The clinical team first focused on stabilising the patient and relieving the obstruction. A therapeutic endoscopic procedure with stenting was performed, leading to improvement in symptoms and liver function. Once optimised, the patient was carefully planned for definitive surgical management.
