She is an expert in ‘Peritoneal surface oncology’ that deals with peritoneal cancer- stage 4 abdominal cancer. Till few years ago, these cancers were treated with chemotherapy alone and patients survived only a few months. With surgical treatment, some of these patients can have a prolonged survival and can even get cured.

Dr. Aditi Bhatt has obtained special training in performing cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC for these cancers at a world renowned center in France. She is one of the first surgeons to start performing such surgeries in the country and has one of the largest experiences of over 150 procedures.

The outcome of this treatment depends on the quality of the surgery which takes around a 100 procedures to master.

She was also one of the first surgeons to start performing PIPAC in the country She has published several scientific papers and a book on this subject and has organized workshops for training other Indian surgeons.

At Zydus we have the first dedicated unit for the treatment of peritoneal cancer offering both HIPEC and PIPAC in Gujarat. Such treatment needs expertise in other specialities as well like medical oncology, anesthesiology and intensive care, radiology and pathology which is available at our center.

This treatment is expensive and represents a substantial financial burden to patients with stage 4 cancer who may have already spent a lot on other treatments. At Zydus we offer this treatment at a substantially lower cost compared to the few other such centers in the country thus making it affordable for most patients.
