Conventional open surgery for uterine tumors involves a large incision (wound) to do this surgery. Laparoscopic Radical Hysterectomy is performed via small wounds which are tolerated much well by the patients. Laparoscopic or Laproscopic cancer surgery has several advantages over conventional open surgery with same cure rate. Only surgery is curative in most of the cancers. Additional therapies (chemotherapy & radiotherapy) are mostly supportive. But, many patients and their relatives try to avoid surgery for the fear of the immense trauma for their loved ones, resulting in patient getting wrong or less effective treatment. With laparoscopy the trauma is much less and makes the treatment more acceptable. The Team MACS precisely addresses all these issues and works relentlessly for a better life.

As bleeding is seen early in endometrial cancer, most of the cases are diagnosed early. Symptoms like weight loss, urinary symptoms, etc are seen only when the disease is advanced. Endometrial cancer is diagnosed by an endometrial biopsy.
