Chemotherapy-Induced Extravasation Management

Abstract

Intravenous chemotherapy drugs used in the treatment of solid tumors are widely used because of the systemic response is rapid and effective. Extravasation is one of the important complications of chemotherapy. Extravasation is a tissue injury resulting in infiltration of the subcutaneous and subdermal space during infusion of the drug. Chemotherapy extravasation, which can be seen on different tabulations from soft tissue irritation to necrosis, is important for clinical practice. In this review, extravasation, classification and management were reviewed

Kemoterapiye Bağlı Ekstravazasyon Yönetimi

Öz

Solid tümörlerin tedavisinde kullanılan intravenöz kemoterapi ilaçları sistemik yanıtın etkin ve hızlı olması nedeniyle yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Kemoterapinin önemli komplikasyonlardan birisi ekstravazasyondur. Ekstravazasyon, ilacın infüzyonu sırasında subkutan ve subdermal alana infiltrasyonu sonucu gelişen doku hasarıdır. Yumuşak doku hasarından nekroz oluşumuna kadar farklı klinik tablolarda görülebilen kemoterapi ekstravazasyonu klinik uygulamalar açısından önemlidir. Bu derlemede ekstravazasyon, sınıflaması ve yönetimi gözden geçirilmiştir
