Abdominal surgery for uterine cancer due. What points will be discussed during post surgery appointment?
Patient: My surgery is scheduled for Aug. 22.  I have asked my doctors office in various ways what to expect and seem to get put off or told we will discuss that at the post op appointment that is 2 days before the surgery.  I want to know now so that I have time to process all that is going to happen.  I am having abdominal surgery for uterine cancer.  Any suggestions? Doctor: Dear,when it is early stage of uterine cancer you need to have removal of uterous. In advanced stages method of management may be different. If you are post menopausal you do not have to worry as the uterous will be removed and you will be free of tumor. Further management will depend upon the histopathological finding. Pre-operatively the surgeon will assess wheather you are fit for surgery. truly,Dr. J. Ticku
