Oncology Interventions
Oncology interventions involve minimally invasive procedures used in the diagnosis, treatment, and palliation of cancer. These interventions play a crucial role in managing tumors, reducing symptoms.
Symptoms We Treat
- Persistent pain & cancer
- Obstruction of organs
- Obstructon in vessels
- Pain in bones
- Metastasis
- Poor treatments effects
- Difficulty in breathing
Causes
Various types of cancer, including liver, lung, kidney, and bone metastases.
Risks
Potential risks include bleeding, infection, damage to surrounding tissues, and incomplete tumor destruction.
ProcedureS
Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA)
Using heat to destroy cancer cells
Cryoablation
Freezing cancer cells to kill them.
Chemoembolization (TACE)
Delivering chemotherapy directly to a tumor while blocking its blood supply.
Brachytherapy
Placing radioactive seeds close to or inside the tumor.
Treatment Options
Image-Guided Biopsy
To obtain tissue samples for diagnosis.
Pain Management Techniques
Such as nerve blocks or vertebroplasty for bone metastases.
Palliative Procedures
To relieve symptoms like jaundice or bowel obstruction.
post Procedure Recovery
Recovery is generally quick, with most patients returning to normal activities within a few days. Some interventions may require overnight hospital observation.
Success rate
The success rate varies depending on the type of intervention and cancer stage, with some procedures like RFA achieving local control rates of 80% to 90% in certain tumors.
While some interventions can eliminate small tumors, they are often part of a broader treatment plan and may not be curative on their own.
Most procedures are minimally invasive and involve little discomfort, often performed under local anesthesia.
Yes, many oncology interventions are designed to complement other treatments like chemotherapy or radiation.
