Connecting you with India’s leading specialists in these medical fields
Cervical cancer is a cancer that starts in the cervix—the lower part of the uterus that connects to the vagina. It is mostly caused by HPV (human papillomavirus) infection.
- Cervical cancer (stages I–IV)
- High-grade precancer (CIN II/III)
- HPV-related lesions
- Cervical dysplasia or abnormal PAP smear
- Surgical & non-surgical options: LEEP, Cone biopsy, Radical hysterectomy, Chemoradiation
Radical hysterectomy is a surgical procedure to remove the uterus, cervix, upper vagina, and surrounding tissues (including lymph nodes), often used to treat early-stage cervical or uterine cancer.
- Effective cancer control – removes localized cancer completely.
- Can be curative – especially in early-stage cervical cancer.
- Prevents recurrence – by removing nearby tissues and lymph nodes.
- Invasive surgery – involves significant recovery time.
- Loss of fertility – uterus removal means no future pregnancy.
- Potential complications – including bleeding, infection, bladder or bowel injury.
- USD: $4,000 to $7,000
- Kenya Shillings (KES): Approx. KES 540,000 to 940,000
Cost varies by hospital, surgical method (open, laparoscopic, robotic), and hospital stay.
Brachytherapy is a form of internal radiation therapy where radioactive sources are placed inside or next to the tumor, delivering high-dose radiation to cancer while sparing surrounding healthy tissue. Commonly used for cervical, prostate, and breast cancers.
- Precise targeting – radiation is concentrated on the tumor.
- Fewer side effects – less damage to nearby organs.
- Shorter treatment time – compared to external beam radiation.
- Not suitable for all cancers – limited to localized tumors.
- Requires anesthesia – especially for internal placement.
- Radiation safety precautions – possible restrictions for close contact post-treatment.
- USD: $3,000 to $6,000
- Kenya Shillings (KES): Approx. KES 400,000 to 800,000
Cost may vary by cancer type, number of sessions, and hospital.
Chemoradiation combines chemotherapy and radiation therapy to treat cancer at the same time. Chemotherapy makes cancer cells more sensitive to radiation. It’s commonly used for cervical, head & neck, lung, and rectal cancers.
- More effective than radiation or chemo alone.
- Can shrink tumors before surgery.
- Organ preservation – may avoid the need for full organ removal.
- More side effects – due to dual treatment.
- Fatigue and nausea – common during treatment.
- Not suitable for weak patients – requires good overall health.
- USD: $4,500 to $9,000
- Kenya Shillings (KES): Approx. KES 600,000 to 1,200,000
Cost depends on cancer type, number of chemo cycles, and radiation sessions.
