At Mirus Critical Care Centre, our Oncosurgery Department specializes in the surgical management of various types of cancer. While all cancers have the potential to be life-threatening if left untreated or advanced, there are specific conditions and situations that require urgent surgical intervention. Our oncologic surgeons are trained to manage such life-threatening oncosurgery conditions, which may include:
Tumors that cause obstruction or blockage in critical organs or structures can be life-threatening. Examples include gastrointestinal tumors causing bowel obstruction, lung tumors causing airway obstruction, or brain tumors causing increased intracranial pressure. Surgical resection or debulking of these tumors is often necessary to relieve the obstruction and prevent further complications.
In some cases, tumors can perforate or rupture, leading to severe bleeding, infection, or internal organ damage. Examples include perforated gastrointestinal tumors or ruptured ovarian or testicular tumors. Emergency surgical intervention is required to control bleeding, remove the damaged tissue, and prevent life-threatening complications.
When cancer spreads to the spinal cord and compresses the nerves, it can result in severe pain, paralysis, or loss of function. Urgent surgical decompression and stabilization procedures are performed to relieve the compression and preserve neurological function.
Superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome occurs when the superior vena cava, a major vein that carries blood to the heart, becomes compressed or obstructed by tumors in the chest. This can lead to swelling of the face, neck, and upper body, difficulty breathing, and potential life-threatening complications. Surgical intervention may be necessary to relieve the obstruction and restore normal blood flow.
Certain oncologic emergencies, such as bowel perforation, tumor bleeding, or tumor-related infections, require immediate surgical intervention to stabilize the patient and prevent further complications. These situations may arise as a result of advanced or aggressive cancers.

It's important to note that the specific treatment and management of these life-threatening oncosurgery conditions will depend on the individual patient's situation and requirements. Our oncologic surgeons work closely with other medical professionals, emergency departments, and specialized teams to ensure comprehensive and coordinated care.
