Vaginal cancer is a rare form of gynecologic cancer that affects the tissues of the vagina. Often, it develops slowly over time, making early detection critical for successful treatment. Women who have been diagnosed with HPV or have a history of cervical cancer are at a higher risk of developing vaginal cancer. Symptoms can include abnormal vaginal bleeding, pelvic pain, and changes in urinary habits.
At Gyne Cancer Clinic, we specialize in the early detection and treatment of vaginal cancer. Our diagnostic process includes pap smear testing, HPV testing, and biopsy procedures to identify cancerous or precancerous changes in the vaginal tissue. Imaging techniques such as MRI and CT scans are also used to assess the extent of the disease.
Treatment options vary depending on the stage of the cancer. Early-stage vaginal cancer may be treated with localized procedures such as laser surgery or radiation therapy, while more advanced cases may require more extensive surgery or a combination of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation. Our team of gynecologic oncologists works closely with each patient to develop a personalized treatment plan that minimizes side effects while maximizing the chances of recovery.
The Gyne Cancer Clinic is dedicated to providing compassionate care, offering patients access to the latest advances in cancer treatment. In addition to treatment, we provide counseling and support services to help women manage the emotional and physical challenges associated with a cancer diagnosis. Regular follow-up care and monitoring are essential to ensure that the cancer does not recur.
Preventive care is also a focus at our clinic. We encourage all women to undergo regular pap smear testing and HPV vaccination if eligible. Early detection is the best defense against vaginal cancer, and our clinic is committed to providing comprehensive screening services to help women stay on top of their reproductive health.
