We have a comprehensive surgical oncology services managed by a well trained and experienced team.
We provide surgical procedures for :

• Head and Neck Cancer
• Breast cancer
• Gynaecology cancer
• Gastro intestinal Cancers
• Musculoskeletal Cancers
• Brain and Spine Cancers

A team of senior doctors working in close association with surgical and radiation oncology colleagues. Medical oncology team plays major role in initial assessment of patients with suspected cancer. Team plays role in molecular oncology diagnostic work up and contributes to overall treatment planning n multi-disciplinary setting.

Both inpatient and day care chemotherapy services are provided. Chemotherapy through chemoport device, PICC line and intraperitoneal services also provided. Dose dense chemotherapy or once in 3 weekly cycles given before surgery to down size the tumor to make it operable, post surgery chemo to improve the cure rate and in advanced cases to control the disease.

Emergency services for patients with infection from low blood counts due to chemotherapy or haematological condition also available.

Targeted therapy is provided in certain cancers with oral medications and in certain cases with biological agents. Newer Immuno- oncology therapy is also provided for certain suitable patients.

Palliative care services are provided for terminally ill patients with a close coordination with pain management team, psycho-oncology team and physiotherapy/ rehabilitation team.

Radiation facility will be provided soon

CATHLAB:

A catheterization laboratory or Cath lab is an examination room in a hospital or clinic with diagnostic imaging equipment used to visualize the arteries of the heart and the chambers of the heart and treat any stenosis or abnormality found.

At Prakriya we have a state of art Pinnacle Cath lab machine which enables us to conduct the most complex of the procedure.

Types Of Interventional Radiology:
Arteriograms:
Minimally invasive procedure to improve blood flow to a particular area. Tiny balloons are used to stretch blood vessels, which are narrowed and diseased. This procedure is used to treat leg pains, hypertension, kidney disease, strokes or circulatory disorders. These procedures are often surgery sparing.

Angioplasty:
Minimally invasive procedure to improve blood flow to a particular area. Tiny balloons are used to stretch blood vessels, which are narrowed and diseased. This procedure is used to treat leg pains, hypertension, kidney disease, strokes or circulatory disorders. These procedures are often surgery sparing.

Stents:
A minimally invasive procedure during which metal tubes are used to prop open blood vessels or bile ducts.

Embolization:
Minimally invasive procedure used to decrease blood flow to various organs. This is utilized in instances of abnormal bleeding, such as due to trauma or cancer. Embolization has also been used for treatment of pelvic pain or bleeding related to uterine fibroids.

Venous Access:
Portacaths, PICC Lines, Dialysis Catheters. Using minimally invasive techniques long-term and short-term vascular access catheters are placed in the Interventional Radiology suite. Studies have showed improved success rates using imaging guidance as compared to surgery.

Biopsy:
Fine needle biopsy is a minimally invasive alternative to open surgical biopsy. A small needle is inserted into the area in question to help determine further therapy. The needle biopsy is often less risky and more easily tolerable for a patient.

Fibroid Embolization:
Known medically as uterine artery embolization, this is a new alternative for women. It is a minimally invasive procedure, which means it requires only a tiny nick in the skin. It is performed while the patient is conscious but sedated - drowsy and feeling no pain.

We have a beneficial physical and psychological rehabilitation program for all our patients. We also provide dietary advice for patients receiving chemotherapy and undergoing complex surgery.
