Glioblastoma is a malignant neoplasm that arises from glial cells of the brain. The tumor is heterogeneous and requires a differentiated therapeutic approach. When elaborating a treatment regimen, German oncologists take into account the molecular and genetic composition of the tumor and its location in relation to vital parts of the brain.

Cryoablation (cryotherapy) is a method of ultra-fast freezing of tissue in order to destroy it. The technique is used in oncology, most commonly for kidney cancer, prostate cancer, and metastatic liver cancer. It can also be used for other types of cancer as a palliative procedure that partially destroys the tumor and relieves symptoms.

Prostate cancer immunotherapy represents a breakthrough in cancer treatment that's showing remarkable results across various disease stages. Immunotherapy works where other treatments have failed and can no longer stop cancer progression. While traditionally considered for advanced cases, recent clinical evidence demonstrates...
