Some common types of cancer surgery are listed below.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Type of surgery\uff1a<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u30fbResection Surgery:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a surgical procedure to remove the tumor or cancerous tissue. The extent of partial or total resection depends on the type and stage of the cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u30fbLymph Node Dissection:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Surgery to remove surrounding lymph nodes to prevent cancer cells from spreading to the lymph nodes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u30fbReconstructive Surgery<\/strong>:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is a surgical procedure to repair a defect after resection surgery. Examples include breast reconstruction surgery and intestinal reconstruction surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u30fbLaparoscopic Surgery:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This method uses an endoscope through a small incision. Laparoscopic and thoracoscopic surgeries are available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u30fbRadiosurgery:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A surgical procedure that uses radiation to incinerate cancerous tissue. Gamma Knife and CyberKnife are used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u30fbLiver Transplantation:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In some cases of liver cancer, transplantation of the entire liver may be necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Surgical procedures by site\uff1a<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u30fbCraniotomy:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is a procedure performed as part of brain tumor resection or neurosurgery<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u30fbThoracic Surgery:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Surgery for cancers of the chest, such as lung cancer and esophageal cancer.

Japan is one of the countries with high technology in the field of robot-assisted surgery. Japanese medical institutions have introduced advanced surgical robots, and robot-assisted surgery is used in many cancer surgeries and other surgical procedures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u30fbRobotic Prostatectomy:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Robotic-assisted surgery is widely used for radical removal of prostate cancer. A surgeon operates a surgical robot to perform a precise resection. This method decreases postoperative complications and shortens recovery time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u30fbRobotic Hysterectomy:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is applied to hysterectomies.
