GI Cancer
Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers refer to a group of cancers that affect the digestive system, including the esophagus, stomach, liver, pancreas, colon, rectum, and anus. These cancers can arise from various types of cells within the digestive tract and may present with symptoms such as abdominal pain, changes in bowel habits, unexplained weight loss, and difficulty swallowing. GI cancers are often diagnosed at advanced stages, highlighting the importance of early detection and timely intervention.
At Manohari Super Speciality Hospital Urology & IVF Centre, our team of experienced surgical gastroenterologists, led by Dr. Munikrishna. S, specializes in the diagnosis and management of GI cancers. Through comprehensive evaluations, including imaging studies, endoscopic procedures, and biopsy analysis, we strive to accurately diagnose GI malignancies and develop personalized treatment plans tailored to each patient’s specific cancer type, stage, and overall health.
Treatment for GI cancers may involve a combination of surgical interventions, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapies, and immunotherapy, depending on the location and extent of the cancer. Our multidisciplinary approach ensures that patients receive comprehensive care from a team of specialists, including surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, and supportive care providers. We are committed to providing compassionate support and guidance to patients and their families throughout their cancer journey, helping them navigate treatment decisions and optimize quality of life.
