Solid Tumors:
Solid tumors refer to abnormal growths of cells in tissues or organs of the body that form a mass or lump. Common types of solid tumors include brain cancer, eye cancer, renal cancer, hepatic cancer, and germ cell tumors. Each type requires a tailored approach to treatment, which may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, or targeted therapy.
Lymphoreticular Malignancies:
Lymphoreticular malignancies, also known as hematologic malignancies, affect the blood, bone marrow, and lymphatic system. These include leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma. Treatment for lymphoreticular malignancies may involve chemotherapy, targeted therapy, stem cell transplant, or immunotherapy. Our team specializes in managing these complex conditions with compassion and expertise.
