Listen now
Description
In this episode of Run the List, Walker Redd (host) and Jakub Glowala (case presenter) talk with Dr. Rebecca Zon, a hematology/oncology fellow in the Dana-Farber/Mass General Brigham program, about solid oncologic emergencies. We learn to think anatomically about where tumors arise, where they may subsequently present, and how that can clinically manifest in an emergent situation. They then focus in on neurologic complications of solid malignancies and discuss how to triage, manage, and consult with other medical and surgical teams to provide rapid care to these patients. The episode then closes with clinical pearls from Dr. Walker Redd who highlights the need to quickly assess the severity of the patient in these contexts. https://www.runthelistpodcast.com/hematologyoncology/#onc-emergencies
