Cardiac Tumour Treatment

Cardiac Tumour Treatment in India

Cardiac tumours, as the name suggests, are abnormal lumps of irregularly-growing cells in the heart that may or may not be cancerous. Even if not cancerous, a cardiac tumour is extremely dangerous and calls for immediate action. A cardiac tumour can be diagnosed by an echocardiogram, PET Scan, or even an MRI of the heart. There are a few options for treating a cardiac tumour. Just like any kind of tumour, you can go for chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or choose surgical removal of the tumour if it can be done safely.

If you opt for surgical removal of the tumour, the surgeon removes the tumour from the heart tissue along with some surrounding cells or tissues in the heart to avoid recurring tumour cell growth. The process requires a heart-lung bypass machine that takes over the functioning of a normal heart during the surgery. It is an extremely complicated surgery but has a success rate of 65-80% if done by expert cardiac surgeons with high expertise in the field.

A person undergoing open-heart or bypass surgery needs to stay in the hospital for 7-10 days at least which includes at least 24 hours in the ICU immediately post the surgery. During this time, the vitals, heartbeat, oxygenation to body tissues, and many other complicated parameters are monitored closely to reduce the risk of post-surgical morbidity.

If released, the patient has to follow all guidelines that are laid down after an open-heart surgery like complete rest without any kind of jerking (strenuous) activities, driving, playing sports, lifting heavy items, doing daily chores and running or jumping, and many others. Bathing instructions as well as all other instructions are properly given by the healthcare providers after the surgery during discharge. Cardiac tumour treatment cost in India starts from 7.5 lacs and can go all the way up to 40 lacs depending on the number of sitting, cancer stage, cancer location in the heart, hospital location, and many other factors.
