Frequently asked questions
Is TACE a cure?
TACE controls and shrinks tumours; whether it is curative depends on the tumour. Your doctors will explain the goal of treatment.
This page is general information, not medical advice. Treatment is decided by the treating doctor after examination. Aarogyavaram does not run OPD consultations; specialists attend to admitted patients and emergencies.
