💔 #LaryngealCancer | It occurs when a tumor grows in the larynx or on the vocal cords. It is a rare type of head and neck cancer. 🎤💔 Laryngeal cancer is a type of cancer that affects the larynx (voice box). The larynx is a tube about 5cm long in adults. It is located in the neck, above the trachea (the windpipe), and in front of the esophagus (the food pipe). One-third of all head and neck cancers are laryngeal cancer, which may be a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis of laryngeal cancer may involve a range of tests including laryngoscopy, nasendoscopy, nasendoscopy, bone scans, barium swallow tests, and histopathological examinations. Treatment options are determined based on factors such as the type, stage, grade, and spread of the cancer, as well as the overall health of the patient. For further details, visit our page @ https://lnkd.in/gGZK2U6X to raise awareness about this lesser-known condition and its impact on individuals' lives. 💪🎗️ #LaryngealCancerAwareness #HeadAndNeckCancer #EarlyDetectionSavesLives #LaryngealCancerCauses #LaryngealCancerTreatment #LaryngealCancerSymptoms #LaryngealCancerDiagnosis #LaryngealCancerManagemnt #Larynx #VocalCords #Trachea #Esophagus #Laryngoscopy #Nasendoscopy #Nasendoscopy #BoneScans #BariumSwallowTests #Histopathological #Chemotherapy #RadiationTherapy #Surgery #Bhimar #LifeSciences #Healthcare

September is #thyroidcancerawareness month. It is tough to talk about at times, but at the end of 2023, a pre-cancerous nodule was found on my thyroid. Waiting for those test results to find out if I had cancer or not was absolute torture, but two good things did come from that time: I learned that the nodule was pre-cancerous, meaning that if it were addressed quickly through surgery, I wouldn't have actual cancer because the risks of developing cancer would be avoided and removed. I also learned that for the first time in my life, my iron levels in my blood were above average. As a former anaemic, I found that bit of news thrilling. With a whole lot of running around to appointments and trying multiple doctors until a spot opened up for surgery, I eventually got the surgery. By January, I had my entire thyroid removed. By the end of January, I started the life-long process of taking thyroid medication. By March, my first post-surgery blood test revealed that my thyroid hormone levels were perfect. I didn't get cancer because of the excellent timing of my treatment and a doctor with experience working with thyroid patients. But not all women are that lucky. Not all people, in general, are that lucky. I am sharing this blog post with you that explains in simple English what signs of thyroid nodules to look out for because, unfortunately, many cases of thyroid disease aren't being treated or addressed, particularly in women, leading to actual thyroid cancer circulating. https://lnkd.in/epUzPRig

📃Scientific paper: Extrathyroidal extension and cervical node infiltration are associated with recurrences and shorter recurrence-free survival in differentiated thyroid cancer: a cohort study Abstract: Background Differentiated thyroid cancer has excellent overall survival. However, around 20% of patients experience recurrent diseases after a certain time of follow-up. Therefore, identification of risk factors for recurrence is necessary to adjust treatment and surveillance planning. Methods A retrospective study was conducted of 312 patients with differentiated thyroid cancer who received surgery with and without adjuvant treatment. Clinical and pathological risk factors were analyzed for recurrences. Results After median follow-up of 57 months, 109 of 312 patients (34.9%) developed recurrences. Extrathyroidal extension and positive cervical nodes were significantly associated with recurrences (OR = 2.449, 95%CI:1.260–4.760, P = 0.008 and OR = 3.511, 95%CI:1.860–6.626, P < 0.001; respectively). Lympho-vascular invasion (LVI) and tumor multifocality were also associated with increased risk of recurrence (OR = 2.577, 95%CI:1.380–4.812, P = 0.003 and OR = 1.602, 95%CI:1.001–2.495, P = 0.050; respectively). Using multivariable regression, only older age and tumor infiltration to the lymph nodes were significantly associated with recurrences (OR = 2.227, 95%CI:1.037–4.782, P = 0.040 and OR = 2.966, 95%CI:1.470–5.986, P = 0.002; respectively). In addition, T4, cervical lymph node infiltration, older age, and LVI were associated with shorter recurrence-free survival. Conclusion Recurrence rates in our study population are relatively high.

Thrilled to be featured on 𝐏𝐬𝐲𝐜𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐠 in their article "𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐓𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭" Stomach cancer treatment typically involves a combination of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, depending on the cancer's stage and location. Surgical options may include partial or total gastrectomy, where part or all of the stomach is removed. 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐲 uses drugs to target and kill cancer cells, and may be administered before surgery (neoadjuvant) to shrink the tumor or after surgery (adjuvant) to eliminate remaining cancer cells. Radiation therapy uses high-energy beams to destroy cancer cells and may be used in conjunction with surgery and chemotherapy. Targeted therapies and immunotherapies are emerging treatments that focus on specific genetic mutations or enhance the body's immune response to cancer. Early detection and a multidisciplinary approach are crucial for effective management and improved outcomes. The stomach cancer treatment market is expanding due to rising incidence rates and advancements in medical technology.

🔬💔 #PancreaticCancer | It begins when abnormal cells in the pancreas grow and divide out of control and form a tumor. 💔🔬 Pancreatic cancer is a disease caused by the uncontrolled growth of cells in the pancreas. The pancreas is a hand-sized, pear-shaped organ located behind the stomach in the abdomen. It produces enzymes that help in digestion and hormones, such as insulin, which regulate blood glucose levels. 💡 The symptoms of pancreatic cancer are not noticeable until the disease has progressed to an advanced stage. The silent nature of the disease coupled with its rapid spread makes it challenging to diagnose and manage pancreatic cancer which is reflected in its extremely low survival rates. Surgical resection of the tumor is the primary treatment option when the disease has not spread to other parts of the body. The extent of surgery depends on the size and location of the tumor. 💪💜 For more details, visit our page @ https://lnkd.in/g__4-z68 and join us in spreading awareness about pancreatic cancer and its impact on individuals #PancreaticCancerAwareness #EarlyDetection #FightCancer #PancreaticCancerCauses #PancreaticCancerDiagnosis #PancreaticCancerManagement #PancreaticCancerTreatment #PancreaticCancerSymptoms #BloodGlucoseLevels #SurgicalResection #BloodTests #ImagingTechniques #Biopsy #ExocrineTumors #EndocrineTumors #Surgery #Bhimar #LifeSciences #Healthcare

🔬🩺 #EsophagealCancer | It can occur when a malignant tumor forms in the lining of the esophagus. 🔬🩺 Esophageal cancer (EC) is cancer that occurs in the esophagus (a long hollow tube that connects the throat to the stomach). Usually, it develops in the cells that line the internal parts of the esophagus. It can occur anywhere along the length of the esophagus. Globally, it is the sixth most frequent cause of cancer-related fatalities. Esophageal cancer affects men more commonly as compared to the women. In the initial stages, any prominent signs and symptoms of this disease may not be seen. But gradually as the disease progresses the patient may experience, dysphagi (Problem with swallowing), loss of weight without effort, discomfort or burning sensation in the chest accompanied by pain, heartburn etc. Treatment is best managed by a multidisciplinary team including surgeons, gastroenterologists, medical oncologists, radiologists, radiation oncologists, and pathologists.

Although conventional standard care for Cancer treatment have its advantages every cancer patient is unique and treatments can be tailored. Side Effects: Chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery—the cornerstones of conventional cancer treatment—often come with significant side effects. These can include nausea, hair loss, fatigue, pain, and increased susceptibility to infections. Limited Efficacy: Conventional treatments may not be effective for all types and stages of cancer. Some cancers are resistant to chemotherapy or radiation, and surgery may not be an option for all patients, depending on the location and spread of the cancer. Damage to Healthy Cells: Chemotherapy and radiation therapy not only target cancer cells but also damage healthy cells in the process. This can lead to long-term complications and decrease the patient's quality of life. Risk of Secondary Cancers: Radiation therapy and certain chemotherapy drugs can increase the risk of developing secondary cancers later in life due to the damage they cause to healthy cells' DNA. Financial Burden: Cancer treatment, particularly conventional treatments, can be extremely expensive. This financial burden can be overwhelming for patients and their families, especially if treatments are prolonged or if the patient is unable to work. Psychological Impact: The diagnosis and treatment of cancer can take a toll on patients' mental health and well-being. Anxiety, depression, and fear of recurrence are common psychological challenges faced by cancer patients undergoing conventional treatment. Long-term Toxicity: Some chemotherapy drugs can have long-term toxic effects on the body, even after treatment has ended. These effects can include damage to organs such as the heart, kidneys, and lungs, as well as issues with fertility and hormone production. Resistance: Cancer cells can develop resistance to chemotherapy drugs over time, making them less effective. This can necessitate changes in treatment plans and may limit the options available to patients and they can have disadvantages Invasive Procedures: Surgical interventions for cancer treatment can be invasive and carry risks of complications such as infection, bleeding, and damage to surrounding tissues and organs. Delay in Seeking Alternative Treatments: Relying solely on conventional treatments may lead to delays in exploring complementary or alternative therapies that could potentially enhance the effectiveness of treatment or improve quality of life. #tailoredcancertreatments #chemotherapy #radiology #dnatesting #moleculardiagnostics #molecularbiology

🌟 #EsophagealCancer | It can occur when a malignant tumor forms in the lining of the esophagus. 🌟 🎗️ Esophageal cancer (EC) is a cancer that occurs in the esophagus (a long hollow tube that connects the throat to the stomach). Usually, it develops in the cells that line the internal parts of the esophagus. 🤯 It can occur anywhere along the length of the esophagus. Globally, it is the sixth most frequent cause of cancer-related fatalities. The prognosis for esophageal cancer is fairly poor because, by the time the first symptoms appear, the disease will progress to an advanced stage. The overall prognosis depends upon the stage of EC. So early diagnosis and prompt treatment are important to improve the survival rate in EC patients. 🌍💙 🌐🔍 Explore in-depth information about Esophageal Cancer by visiting our website @ https://lnkd.in/g5wgimuf #EsophagealCancerAwareness #KnowledgeIsPower #SpreadTheWord #CancerAwareness #HealthMatters #EsophagealCancerCauses #EsophagealCancerSymptoms #EsophagealCancerManagement #EsophagealCancerDiagnosis #EsophagealCancerTreatment #Esophagus #Bhimar #LifeSciences #Healthcare #Informations #Omics #Surgery #Chemotherapy
