Vaginal Cuff to Remove Cancer Posted: 06-29-06 12:39pm
I had a total abdominal hysterectomy on
April 8th 2003. Had my check-ups on time.
Today I received some bad news, The doc
thinks that my cancer came back. I might
need to have a vaginal cuff done. Can you
please explain that to me and what type of
proceedure will be done.
I'll need to know what kind of cancer you
had previously that neccessitated the
removal of your uterus as well as the
results of the check-ups you've had
(Pap-tests, tumor-markers) in order to
answer your question. Don’t worry, your
gynecologist can explain everything to
you.
