Who is this surgery for?
- Confirmed diagnosis of cancer that has spread (metastasized) to one or more lymph nodes or distant organs.
- Presence of symptoms related to metastatic disease, such as persistent swollen lymph nodes, unexplained weight loss, fever, or night sweats.
- To control the growth and spread of cancer, even if symptoms are not yet severe (proactive management).
- As a palliative measure to relieve pain, obstruction, or other complications caused by tumor masses.
- Following initial treatment for primary cancer where monitoring reveals metastatic progression.
How to prepare
- Comprehensive Staging: Undergo imaging scans (CT, PET-CT, MRI) and possibly a lymph node biopsy to confirm metastasis and determine the extent of disease.
- Medical Evaluation: Complete blood tests, heart function tests (ECHO/MUGA), and kidney function tests to assess fitness for treatment.
- Consultation: Detailed discussions with the oncologist about treatment goals, options, potential side effects, and expected outcomes.
- Pre-medications: May receive medications to prevent nausea or allergic reactions before certain therapies.
- Lifestyle & Support: Arrange for support during treatment, discuss nutrition plans, and address any dental or other health issues.
Risks & possible complications
- Treatment Side Effects: Common effects include fatigue, nausea, hair loss (from chemo), low blood counts (increasing infection risk), and neuropathy.
- Organ Toxicity: Potential damage to the heart, kidneys, liver, or lungs from certain chemotherapy or targeted drugs.
- Immune-related Reactions: With immunotherapy, there is a risk of the immune system attacking healthy organs (e.g., colitis, pneumonitis).
- Infection: Increased susceptibility due to immunosuppression from both cancer and treatment.
- Disease Progression: Despite treatment, cancer may continue to grow or become resistant to therapy.
Recovery & hospital stay
- Immediate Post-Treatment: Monitoring for acute side effects after chemotherapy or immunotherapy sessions; managing nausea and fatigue.
- Ongoing Monitoring: Regular blood tests and follow-up scans to assess treatment response and detect any new issues early.
- Symptom Management: Proactive use of medications for pain, nausea, and other side effects; nutritional support to maintain strength.
- Lifestyle Adjustments: Gradual return to activities as energy permits; emphasis on rest, balanced diet, and mild exercise when possible.
- Psychosocial Support: Access to counseling, support groups, and palliative care teams to address emotional and psychological well-being.

I'd been to a few doctors...
I'd been to a few doctors for this persistent stomach pain, and everyone just said it was stress. Dr. Jayaraman was different. He actually listened, asked a ton of questions I hadn't been asked before, and ordered some specific tests others hadn't. Turns out it was a tricky gallbladder issue, not just 'stress.' He explained it all with a diagram on his notepad. I felt heard for the first time.
