What is invovled in a radical vaginectomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Margins: Radical usually means surgically removing all tissue that is bearing cancer cells. Vaginal cancer, like most cancer therapies today is approached with surgery, removal of cancer bearing tissue, chemotherapy and radiation to address cancer cells hiding out in your body. Okay to ask your doctor about each step in the process. Take family with you and don't give up. Be well.
