Surgical management of cancers, delivered jointly by our General Surgery, ENT and Obstetrics & Gynaecology teams, with coordinated post-operative and palliative care.
Onco Surgery at Mangala Hospital follows an organ-specific, multidisciplinary model. Cancer surgery is coordinated across three experienced surgical teams: General Surgery for cancers of the breast, thyroid and gastrointestinal tract; ENT for head and neck cancers; and Obstetrics & Gynaecology for gynaecological cancers. This structure connects each patient directly with the team most experienced in operating on the affected organ system, supported by shared diagnostics, operation theatres and critical care.
Our General Surgery team undertakes major oncological surgery as a routine part of its practice, alongside its broader caseload of hernia repair, laparoscopic surgery and thyroid surgery — supported by four sophisticated operation theatres and laser technology also used for select cancer excisions. Separately, our ENT team performs neck onco surgery, including laryngectomy, thyroidectomy, maxillectomy and radical neck dissection, using laser techniques where appropriate for laryngeal and oral lesions.
Gynaecological cancers are managed by the Obstetrics & Gynaecology surgical team, who bring the same laparoscopic hysterectomy expertise used in benign gynaecological surgery to appropriately selected cancer cases. Across all three teams, patients requiring ongoing symptom control or end-of-life care are supported through coordinated palliative care, rather than being discharged without a plan once surgery is complete.
Our Casualty & Emergency department is open 24x7, with mobile ICU ambulance backup.
Call: 0824 244 3088Cancer surgery draws on General Surgery, ENT and OBG expertise rather than a single generalist oncology unit.
Minimally invasive techniques for selected gastric, colonic and gynaecological cancers reduce surgical trauma.
Our ENT team performs laryngectomy, thyroidectomy, maxillectomy and radical neck dissection for head and neck cancers.
Gynaecological cancers are managed by our OBG surgical team, using laparoscopic technique where appropriate.
Laser technology supports select excisions in general surgery and ENT, including laryngeal and oral lesions.
Patients needing ongoing symptom control after surgery are supported through our Pain & Palliative Medicine team.
The General Surgery team undertakes surgery for breast, thyroid, stomach, colon, gallbladder and oesophageal cancers, along with selected skin cancers and soft-tissue sarcomas. Open or laparoscopic surgery is planned according to the tumour's site, stage and surrounding anatomy, supported by modular operation theatres and modern vessel-sealing technology.
The ENT surgical team manages selected cancers of the larynx, oral cavity, sinuses, thyroid and neck. Procedures may include laryngectomy, maxillectomy, thyroidectomy and radical neck dissection, with diode or CO2 laser techniques used where clinically appropriate for selected laryngeal and oral lesions.
Gynaecological cancers are managed by the Obstetrics & Gynaecology team, with minimally invasive hysterectomy techniques considered for appropriately selected cases. Post-operative review is coordinated across departments, while patients needing pain control, symptom management or supportive care are connected with the Pain & Palliative Medicine team.
A referral or direct consultation with the relevant surgical team, supported by imaging and biopsy for diagnosis and staging.
The organ-specific surgical team plans the operation, considering stage, location and the patient's overall fitness for surgery.
Open or laparoscopic cancer surgery is performed, with anaesthesia and post-operative ICU support as needed.
Structured recovery, with coordinated palliative support available for patients who need ongoing symptom management.
Patients are connected with the surgical team best matched to the affected organ system: General Surgery for breast, thyroid and gastrointestinal cancers, ENT for head and neck cancers, and Obstetrics & Gynaecology for gynaecological cancers. The teams share hospital diagnostics, operation theatres, anaesthesia and critical-care support.
It depends on the organ involved. Breast, thyroid and gastrointestinal cancers are managed by General Surgery; head and neck cancers by ENT; and gynaecological cancers by Obstetrics & Gynaecology. Your first consultation will direct you to the right team.
Yes, for appropriately selected cases — including some gastric, colonic and gynaecological cancers — laparoscopic surgery is used to reduce surgical trauma, pain and recovery time compared with open surgery.
You are supported through our Pain & Palliative Medicine team, so care continues in a coordinated way after the surgical team's immediate work is complete.
Our in-house expertise is surgical. Where radiotherapy or chemotherapy is required as part of a patient's overall cancer treatment, our surgical teams will guide and coordinate referral for that component of care.
