How to undergo treatment for oral mucosa tumours in Israel and why it is so effective and successful that thousands of patients from different corners of the world strive to come to our country's clinics – all this and more.
According to statistics, Israel has the lowest mortality rate from oncological diseases. People die from cancer everywhere, except in Israel. And this is a fact proven by research, patient testimonials, and thousands of saved lives.
Treatment of oral mucosa tumours in Israel combines the latest technological and methodological developments in the medical field with the invaluable experience of oncologists and other related specialists.
Treatment Methods for Oral Mucosa Tumours in Israel
When selecting treatment methods for oral mucosa tumours, doctors in Israel take into account the data from precise diagnostics, the overall condition of the body, the stage of tumour development, and the rate of its progression.
- The main method of combating tumours in this localization is the surgical removal of the formation, either surgically or using laser, electric current, or thermal effects. Surgical intervention consists of resection of the localized neoplasm along with the affected adjacent tissues. At Top Ihilov, benign tumours are removed using a minimally invasive method through an incision in the neck area or in the jawbone. Small-sized tumours are excised using robotic technology – the Da Vinci robot. If the removal is extensive, plastic surgery or prosthetics is performed after the operation. In the case of malignant tumours, surgical treatment is complemented by chemotherapy or radiotherapy. For malignant tumours of the oral mucosa, microsurgical operations are also performed, with layer-by-layer excision of the formation and examination of each layer for the presence of residual cancer cells. The operation continues until clean tissues free of cancer cells are obtained.
- High effectiveness for small and clearly localized tumours is achieved with techniques such as laser vaporization (burning cells using laser energy), electrocoagulation (burning atypical cells with high-frequency electric current while simultaneously cauterizing the vessels feeding the neoplasm), or cryodestruction (freezing the cells of the formation with liquid nitrogen).
- Chemotherapy or targeted therapy with biological agents (depending on the type of tumour and its sensitivity to targeted drugs based on molecular genetic testing results). Cytostatics and cytotoxic drugs are prescribed in tablet form or as injections for intravenous administration. If the sensitivity of the cancer tumour to a specific targeted drug is proven, the patient avoids systemic chemotherapy and receives targeted treatment aimed at the pathological cells. Drug treatment for benign tumours involves the prescription of supportive and symptomatic therapy – analgesics, anti-inflammatory drugs, etc.
- Radiosurgery is the precise local irradiation of the area of the cancer formation. It differs from systemic radiation in its precision and accuracy of irradiation using a focused radiation beam. The advantages of radiosurgery are a small number of sessions (1-2) and low radiation exposure to the body.
Diagnosis of Oral Mucosa Tumours in Israel
You can learn in detail how the diagnosis of oral mucosa tumours is conducted in Israel from our consultants. Here we will outline the main points that make our examinations advantageous compared to those in hospitals in Russia, Ukraine, and other post-Soviet countries. Firstly – the quality of the equipment, secondly – the high informativeness of advanced laboratory tests and instrumental techniques, thirdly – the experience of diagnosticians in interpreting results, and finally, the speed – all procedures take only 3-4 working days, regardless of the nature and severity of the pathology. Moreover, such tight deadlines do not affect the quality of the results.
Day One – the first day in the country and at the clinic
The diagnosis begins on the very first day – the day the patient arrives at the clinic. At the appointed time, the patient is consulted by an oncologist who, after reviewing all medical documentation and gathering a new medical history, refers the patient for examination.
Day Two – dedicated to undergoing the assigned procedures
- X-ray examination of the oral cavity.
- Ultrasound.
- Angiography (examination of blood vessels).
- Orthopantomogram, or panoramic X-ray of the jaws.
- Histological examination of the material obtained during biopsy.
- PET-CT/PET-MRI – for oral cancer to detect possible metastases in other organs.
- Scintigraphy (examination of bones for destruction of jaw bone tissue or the presence of metastases).
Day Three – conclusions from the doctors and a treatment program summary
When the oncologist has the results of all examinations, he, as part of a commission of experts from related specialties, makes a decision on the therapy method for the specific case.
Treatment of oral mucosa tumours in Israel, as patient reviews indicate, begins immediately, on the same day or the next.
