Rising Prevalence of Cancer Fuels Embolotherapy Market in South & Central America
The five most common types of cancer are breast, prostate, cervical, lung, and colorectal. However, of these five cancers, the leading cause of cancer-related death is lung cancer. Even though breast cancer has at least a 25% higher incidence among women, cervical carcinoma was the leading cause of death in 2020. Embolization is used to stop bleeding or block blood flow to a tumor or abnormal area of tissue. It is also used to treat liver and kidney cancer and neuroendocrine tumors. Embolizing agents, including embolic microspheres (beads), are used to restrict the vascular supply of tumors, and can be loaded with chemotherapeutic medicines, which elute and diffuse into the tissue. The vascular embolization device (previously the arterial embolization device) is intended to control hemorrhaging due to aneurysms, certain types of tumors, and arteriovenous malformations. The pipeline embolization device is used for the treatment of large and giant wide-neck intracranial aneurysms in the internal carotid artery. It helps prevent aneurysms and tumors from growing and causing harm to essential organs. Thus, the rising prevalence of cancer cases is creating a high demand for embolotherapy products.
