Frequently Asked Questions
Peritoneal cancer affects the peritoneum, the lining of the abdominal cavity. It can be primary (rare, originating in the peritoneum) or secondary (metastatic from organs like ovaries, colon, stomach, or appendix). Secondary peritoneal cancer is more common, especially from ovarian and colorectal cancers. Dr. Bhavsar specializes in treating both types with advanced surgical techniques.
Dr. Bhavsar is a da Vinci certified robotic surgeon with over 1000 successful procedures. He specializes in advanced HIPEC (heated chemotherapy), cytoreductive surgery, and minimally invasive techniques. His expertise in GI oncosurgery, combined with 24/7 emergency care at Gastroplus Hospital and a multidisciplinary approach, makes him the top choice for peritoneal cancer treatment in Gujarat.
HIPEC (Heated Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy) involves delivering heated chemotherapy directly into the abdominal cavity after cytoreductive surgery. The heat (42-43°C) enhances drug penetration and kills microscopic cancer cells. Studies show HIPEC significantly improves survival rates and reduces recurrence in selected peritoneal cancer patients. Dr. Bhavsar is one of the few HIPEC specialists in Ahmedabad.
Cytoreductive surgery typically takes 6-12 hours depending on complexity, followed by 90 minutes for HIPEC. Recovery involves 2-5 days in ICU, 10-21 days total hospital stay, and 3-6 months for complete recovery. Dr. Bhavsar's minimally invasive techniques can reduce recovery time. The multidisciplinary team at Gastroplus Hospital ensures comprehensive post-operative care.
Dr. Bhavsar achieves complete cytoreduction in over 90% of cases, with low morbidity rates due to advanced surgical techniques. Survival outcomes vary by cancer type and stage, but HIPEC combination therapy significantly improves long-term survival compared to systemic chemotherapy alone. His 1000+ procedures demonstrate consistent excellent outcomes in complex GI oncosurgery.
As a da Vinci certified surgeon, Dr. Bhavsar uses robotic surgery when appropriate for peritoneal cancer. Benefits include enhanced precision with 3D visualization, smaller incisions, reduced blood loss, and faster recovery. However, not all peritoneal cancer cases are suitable for robotic approach. Dr. Bhavsar carefully selects the best technique (open, laparoscopic, or robotic) based on individual patient factors and tumor characteristics.
