What is Head and Neck Cancer Surgery?
Head and Neck Cancer Surgery is performed to remove cancerous tumors from the mouth, throat, larynx, or surrounding areas. The goal is to eliminate cancer while preserving vital functions such as speech, swallowing, and facial appearance. Depending on the tumor’s size and location, procedures may include tumor resection, lymph node removal, or reconstructive surgery. Early intervention improves treatment success, reduces complications, and enhances overall quality of life. Post-surgical rehabilitation helps patients regain essential functions and adapt to changes effectively.
