Prof. Dr. Murat Hasanreisoglu is a specialist in Ophthalmology with extensive experience in the field of intraocular tumors. This is just one of his many narrow specializations. One of the methods that Dr. Hasanreisoglu has used to successfully treat ocular tumors is Intra-arterial Chemotherapy (IAC).
The IAC method is a type of chemotherapy that delivers concentrated doses of medication to the affected areas of the eye to fight cancer. Intra-arterial chemotherapy is used for Retinoblastoma, the most common eye tumor. IAC is also used as a retreatment / maintenance / therapy for recurrent tumors and recurrences.
Retinoblastoma is a tumor that forms about 3% of all tumors in children. If this type of cancer is left untreated, it would inflict fatal consequences. With the advancement of the application of this method on Retinoblastoma, the success rate of its application in children is almost 100%.
Together with the other areas in which Assoc. Murat specializes in, we should also mention his important role in the treatment of Uveitis.
Uveitis is a condition that is quite specific and can also be associated with other diseases.
Commonly, uveitis can refer to a variety of conditions that cause inflammation of the middle layer of the eye, the uvea and surrounding tissues.
The typical outward manifestation of uveitis may include soreness, redness of the eyes, clouding of vision.
If uveitis is treated and monitored closely, it would greatly reduce the chances of complications. And the complications can be - glaucoma, cataract, vision loss, macular edema, retinal detachment and others.
