What you need to know about male oncology?
It used to be that malignant tumors in the prostate could appear only after 65 years. Nevertheless, practice shows that the disease is "getting younger" and very aggressive forms of the disease are increasingly being diagnosed in people under 40. According to the WHO, this ailment is one of the five diseases due to which men die most often.
The danger is also that in the early stages the disease is asymptomatic, and the prostate retains its usual size. Men who have been diagnosed with prostatitis are at risk of developing cancer. And if, in addition to urinary disorders, symptoms such as back pain, soreness during ejaculation, blood in urine or semen appear, you should immediately undergo an examination.
Cost of treatment for prostate cancer (prostate), including operations in Israel, as a rule, are lower than in clinics in Europe. In addition, we should not forget that every year Israel allocates millions of dollars for medicine, thanks to which the country's clinics use the latest generation of medical equipment, which can be used to apply the most modern types of therapy.
Types of prostate cancer treatment in clinics Israel
The first thing that should be known to patients who have been diagnosed with cancer of the prostate (prostate gland), - in our time, this type of oncology is treatable without surgery and severe side effects for the body. But for this, the most important thing is timely diagnosis of the disease.
Methods and methods of treating prostate (prostate) cancer, used in Israel:
radiation;
brachytherapy;
chemotherapy;
tookad;
HIFU;
hormone therapy;
external radiation therapy;
radical prostatectomy, etc.
The task of doctors is to remove the malignant formation, but not damage the healthy tissue of the gland. Otherwise, a man may experience problems with urination and erectile dysfunction.
Tookad is a modern and effective treatment for prostate cancer using an innovative drug developed by Israeli specialists. The advantage of this method is the absence of side effects. Malignant cells are destroyed with a laser.
HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) is a modern technique that belongs to the low-traumatic types of therapy used by Israeli oncologists. Like Tookad, this method does not cause serious side effects. The essence of the procedure is quite simple: a malignant cell is punctured with ultrasound, thereby destroying the degenerated segment.
External beam therapy for prostate cancer (prostate) is a more gentle type of conventional radiation therapy, since this type of treatment causes the removal of malignant cells without damaging healthy tissue. Often, to increase the effectiveness of therapy, surgical treatment for prostate cancer is combined with irradiation of the prostate, and numerous patient reviews confirm the effectiveness of this method. First of all, this method is used in order to slightly reduce the size of the malignant tumor before the operation.
Nowadays, prostate cancer is also treated with the help of brachytherapy, which is a subtype of radiation. During the procedure, granules with a radioactive substance are introduced into the tumor, which destroys the formation from the inside.
If metastases have been found in the body, the doctor may recommend chemotherapy. But even in this case, the patient should not worry about possible severe side effects, since Israeli oncological clinics use the most modern drugs with minimal negative impact on the body.
If a man was diagnosed with oncology, then in a complex treatment also uses hormonal drugs that inhibit the production of testosterone, since it can stimulate the division of tumor cells.
