Interventional Radiology
Interventional radiology (IR) is the minimally invasive, image-guided treatment of complex medical conditions without surgery thus offers treatments with less risk, less pain; shorter recovery times and hospital stay. IR is particularly relevant for patients who are in frail health and unfit for surgery.
IR offers treatment for diseases and conditions affecting liver, biliary tract, pancreas, spleen, bowel and kidney like hepatocellular carcinoma (Radio Frequency Ablation-RFA, Microwave ablation-MWA. Trans-arterial chemo embolization-TACE), portal hypertension (Trans-Jugular Intra-hepaticPortosystemic Shunt-TIPS}, HVOTO (DIPS, angioplasty, stenting), abscesses, inducing remnantliver hypertrophy and preventing post-operative liver failure (portal vein embolization), refractory hepatic encephalopathy (Balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration ofvarices-BRTO,PARTO), mesenteric ischemia and portal vein thrombosis (thrombolysis, angioplasty, stenting), traumatic bleeding and collections (embolization,PCD), post liver and kidney transplant complications, postsurgical complications, benign and malignant biliary strictures (PTBD andstenting), cholecystitis (percutaneouscholecystostomy), acute pancreatitis (percutaneous necrosectomy), Hypersplenism (splenic artery embolization), Gl bleed (embolization), renal arterystenosis (angioplasty stenting), renal tumors (ablation), dialysis fistula related complications (fistuloplasty,centralvenoplasty), dialysis access creation (permacath, peritoneal dialysis catheter), diagnostic studies (FNAC, biopsy, diagnostic angiography, HVPG, transjugular liver and kidneybiopsy). We also have the expertise to manage aneurysms and pseudoaneurysm, arteriovenousmalformations, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism (IVC filter), hemoptysis (bronchialarteryembolization), and uterinefibroids (uterinearteryembolization).
Our department is one of the few in country performing some of the innovative procedures like plug assisted retrograde transvenous obliteration (PARTO)to minimise the post procedural complications and monitoring time, per-cutaneous trans hepatic antegrade gastro-lienorenal shuntocclusion for patients with complex venous vascular anatomy, endobiliary RFA for opening biliary stents which get blocked by tumor in-growth and transjugular kidney biopsy (TJKB) inpatients with low platelet count and increased prothrombin time (especially in patients with liver cirrhosis).
