Surgical Oncology

Surgery is the oldest form of cancer treatment and, for most patients, is part of the curative plan. It is used to diagnose, stage, and treat cancer and certain cancer-related symptoms. Our surgical oncologists have performed thousands of procedures and are specially-trained to choose the best type of surgical intervention for your condition. They are expertly trained in the latest techniques, including minimally invasive and robotic surgery.

Jupiter Medical Center's Frank E. & Mary D. Walsh Robotic Surgery Center is equipped with three state-of-art da Vinci® Xi™ Surgical Systems. We were one of the first ten facilities in the world to implement the Xi, our surgical oncologists are continuously pioneering and adopting new advances in technology to remove your cancer more safely and effectively.

Our surgical oncologists perform an array of procedures and treat many types of cancer with specialty areas including:

Breast cancer: We offer innovative approaches to breast cancer treatment including Hidden Scar™ surgery, nipple sparing procedures, oncoloplastic breast surgery, sentinel lymph node mapping and biopsy, axillary node dissection and IntraOperative Electron Radiation Therapy (IOERT).

Gynecologic cancer: Our gynecologic surgical oncologist is a woman's cancer specialist and has extensive experience with the da Vinci Robotic Surgery Sytem as well as laparoscopic surgery.

Lung cancer: We offer multimodality therapy for lung and esophageal cancers, surgery for higher-stage lung cancer, minimally invasive surgery for lung, esophageal cancer and mediastinal disease, robotic lobectomy for lung cancer and robotic thymectomy.

Gastrointestinal cancer: Our surgical gastrointestinal and hepato-pancreato-biliary oncologist specializes in a wide array of cancers, including highly complex or recurrent cases utilizing the most recent advances in technology. With expertise in hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) surgery, we perform more pancreas and liver surgeries (high-volume) than any other institution in the region. We also have expertise in diagnosing and treating unresectable pancreatic and liver cancer and can offer treatment modalities not available everywhere such as irreversible electroporation (IRE) and microwave ablation. Additional expertise includes the management of advanced peritoneal carcinomatosis through the application of Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) and Cytoreductive surgery.

Whether a patient is a candidate for surgery depends on a variety of factors, such as the type, size, location, grade, and stage of the tumor, as well as general health factors, such as the patient’s age, physical fitness and other medical comorbidities. For many patients, surgery will be combined with other cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy or hormone therapy. These may be administered before surgery (neoadjuvant) or after surgery (adjuvant) to help prevent cancer growth, spread or recurrence.
