Introduction to Interventional Therapy

  Interventional treatment characteristics
  Interventional therapy is different from “injection and medication” in internal medicine and “surgery” in surgery, and mainly adopts percutaneous puncture and cannulation to treat lesions locally. Interventional therapy has become one of the main means of clinical treatment in modern hospitals and is becoming the first choice of treatment for some diseases, especially in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma, which has the advantages of “no incision, little damage, fast recovery and good curative effect”. 
  Advantages of interventional therapy
  Interventional therapy is usually performed in the lumen of the tube by puncture under local anesthesia, which has many advantages such as less trauma, better efficacy, quicker effect, less comorbidity, faster recovery, less pain, and no damage to the body structure, etc. It can treat many diseases that are difficult to be treated by medicine and surgery. Interventional treatment of vascular diseases and tumors is its main content.
  ”Open surgery without stitches”
  ”No holes, no holes”
  What diseases can be treated by intervention?
  (divided by disease type)
  1.Malignant tumor diseases: liver cancer, lung cancer, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, urological tumor, liver and lung metastasis of gastrointestinal tumor, gynecological tumor, etc.
  2.Benign neoplastic diseases: hepatic hemangioma, uterine fibroids, etc.
  3.Vascular diseases: limb pain, swelling, necrosis caused by vascular stenosis and obstruction, diabetic foot, renal artery stenosis hypertension, arteriovenous malformation, deep vein thrombosis, saphenous varicose vein.
  4.Ductal stenosis: benign and malignant biliary obstruction (obstructive jaundice), tracheal and esophageal stenosis, duodenal and colorectal stenosis, esophagotracheal fistula.
  5, bleeding disorders: gastrointestinal bleeding (vomiting blood, blood in stool), hemoptysis, post-traumatic bleeding, postpartum hemorrhage, intractable rhinorrhea.
  6.Spleen diseases: hypersplenism, traumatic splenic rupture.
