Surgical care for cancer might be necessary for any number of wide-ranging reasons, such as:

To obtain tissue samples for evaluation under a microscope, which is often used to accurately diagnose a condition. Procedures in this category might include a biopsy, cytology or lymph node dissection.
Tissue removal or organ removal to prevent or treat cancer. Examples include mastectomy, hysterectomy or prostatectomy.
Tumor removal to treat cancer or to relieve pain and other physical symptoms. For instance, a lumpectomy is the removal of a breast cancer tumor while debulking surgery reduces the size of a cancerous tumor.
Reconstructive surgery to repair weakened parts of a patient’s body. Examples include breast reconstruction after breast cancer surgery or skin grafts after skin cancer removal.
