Cardiology
Milano
Via Giacomo Venezian, 1 , 20133 Milano MI
The Cardiology Unit recognizes among its commitments the comprehensive cardiac evaluation of patients who are candidates for oncological treatment, whether surgical or chemo-radiotherapy, with the aim of defining the individual cardiovascular risk and anticipating the need for monitoring potential complications.
Among the patients attending our Foundation who are candidates for surgery and/or medical therapy, many undergo diagnostic assessments and treatments for ischemic heart disease, arterial hypertension, valvular diseases, arrhythmias, and heart failure before and/or during the course of oncological treatment.
Preoperative cardiological risk assessment, preparation, and monitoring are carried out in accordance with the most up-to-date International Guidelines. The Cardiology Unit ensures preliminary evaluation and monitoring of cardiotoxicity related to antineoplastic treatment with Anthracyclines and/or the use of new anticancer drugs and innovative therapies involving monoclonal antibodies and “targeted” biological agents.
