Abstract

Oncological emergencies are defined as any acute possible morbid or life-threatening events in patients with cancer either because of the malignancy or because of their treatment. With advances in antitumor therapy, the prognosis of oncological diseases has improved, so the management of their complications, whether due to the tumors themselves or their respective treatments, becomes more important day by day. These events may occur at any time during malignancy, from symptoms present to end-stage disease. Metabolic syndromes include Tumor Lysis Syndrome and Hypercalcemia. Compression Syndromes includes Superior Vena Cava Syndrome and Spinal Cord Compression Syndrome.
