Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are a type of cancer that originates in the hormone-producing cells of the body. These tumors can develop in various organs, including the pancreas, lungs, and gastrointestinal tract. Dr. Sasmita Vadgaonkar in Vile Parle specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of NETs, offering a combination of surgical and medical therapies based on the tumor’s location and stage.
Surgical resection is the primary treatment for NETs. Dr. Vadgaonkar works with each patient to determine the best surgical approach, ensuring the removal of the tumor with minimal disruption to surrounding tissues. In some cases, additional treatments such as targeted therapy, chemotherapy, or peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) may be used, depending on the type and stage of the NET.
For patients diagnosed with NETs, it is essential to have an accurate diagnosis and a personalized treatment plan. Dr. Vadgaonkar’s clinic offers expert care for these rare cancers to ensure the most effective outcome for each patient.
