MAXILLECTOMY SURGERY
A maxillectomy involves surgically removing part of your upper jaw as part of a cancer treatment. The procedure can also affect nearby structures, such as your teeth, roof of your mouth, and bones that support your eye. Cancers that start in these areas or spread to them can be treated with this procedure. It may be necessary for you to undergo this procedure if you have certain types of head and neck cancer, Maxilla, Nose (nasopharyngeal cancer), Roof of your mouth (oral cancer), Sinuses (sinonasal tumors).
The removal of the maxilla may also be necessary for people with invasive fungal sinusitis. When you inhale certain types of fungi, you can develop this serious condition. Sinus inflammation and tissue damage are caused by it.
LARYNGECTOMY SURGERY
Laryngectomy involves removing the larynx surgically. Your larynx houses your vocal cords, which allow you to produce sound. Lungs are connected to your nose and mouth by the larynx. Additionally, it prevents food and drink from entering your lungs by keeping them in your esophagus. Your speech, swallowing, and breathing will be affected if you have a laryngectomy. It will take you some time to learn how to perform all three tasks after surgery.
COMMANDO OPERATION SURGERY
Commando surgery (combination mandibulectomy and neck dissection surgery) is a common procedure performed in the treatment of oral cancer that develops as a result of prolonged and consistent smoking. Oral cavity cancers include lip tumors, laryngeal cancers, and palate cancers.
Treatment of oral tumors with commando surgery is effective. This procedure also removes part of the facial bone and structures, which results in a disfigured appearance. As a premier hospital for commando surgery, Garv diagnostic center & hospital, India pioneers both oral and maxillo-facial surgeries, as well as reconstructive surgeries that help people perceive themselves differently.
NECK DISSECTION SURGERY
A neck dissection involves removing lymph nodes and surrounding tissue from the neck for cancer treatment. Many factors affect the extent of tissue removal, including the stage of the disease and the type of cancer. There are several types of cancers that can be removed from the lymph nodes in the neck, including head and neck squamous cell carcinomas, skin cancers such as melanoma, and thyroid cancers. Generally, neck dissections aim to remove all the lymph nodes within a predefined anatomic area. It is likely that most of the lymph nodes removed during surgery will not prove to have cancer.
THYROPLASTY SURGERY
Patients with severe weakness or paralysis of the vocal cord undergo thyroplasty. When the surgeon is certain that the paralysis cannot be cured, this procedure is performed. You won’t need to undergo any further procedures until the weakened vocal cord thins out over time. It is, however, possible to remove the implant and reverse the procedure if necessary.
PAROTIDECTOMY SURGERY
An operation to remove the parotid gland is known as a parotidectomy. It is used to treat tumors on parotid glands. Since the facial nerve is close to the parotid gland, this surgery is performed under general anesthesia and requires an expert for greater precision. During a parotidectomy, the tumor is removed through an incision. Incisions are made in front of the ear and along the jawline, under the neck, and down the neck. In this procedure, the tumor is removed along with some surrounding healthy tissue without causing any damage to the facial nerve. A parotidectomy is a complex surgery and can last from 2 to 5 hours depending on the type and technique of surgery.
THYROIDECTOMY SURGERY
Thyroidectomy involves removal of the thyroid gland in whole or in part. Depending on the severity of the disease. We use this to treat thyroid cancer, hyperthyroidism, thyroid nodules, and multinodular goiter. We made a small horizontal incision in the neck’s front through which we will take the thyroid gland out. General anesthesia is usually used and you may need to stay at the hospital overnight or we will discharge you on the same day. Surgical advancements have enabled scarless thyroidectomy, a technique that removes the thyroid with small oral incisions, without leaving a neck scar.
FACIAL MAXYLLRY TRAUMA SURGERY
Any physical trauma to the face is considered facial trauma, also known as maxillofacial trauma. Soft tissue injuries such as burns, lacerations, and bruises, as well as fractures of the face bones, such as nasal fractures and jaw fractures, and eye injuries are all examples of facial trauma. As a result of fractures, patients might experience pain, swelling, loss of function, or changes in facial structure.
