Squamous cell carcinoma
OncologySquamous cell carcinoma refers to a type of malignant tumor that develops from squamous cell epithelial tissue that usually forms the superficial layer of the skin and mucous membranes. It can involve the skin, larynx, lungs, cervix, esophagus and other organs.
Treatment methods
- Surgical treatment
- Radiotherapy
- Chemotherapy
- Targeted therapy
Surgical intervention is performed to remove the tumor without affecting nearby healthy tissue. Sometimes plastic surgery is required after the procedure to restore appearance and functionality.
Radiation therapy at MDI Clinic is performed thanks to the latest equipment and state-of-the-art high-performance technologies. Thanks to them, it is possible to irradiate tumor foci with minimal impact on surrounding tissues.
Chemotherapy is administered before surgery to reduce the size of the neoplasm and facilitate surgical removal. The peculiarity of this procedure is the use of low-toxic chemopreparations that do not cause side effects.
At MDI Clinic, it is in demand to prescribe medications that prevent the growth and spread of diseased cells. Targeted therapy refers to systemic methods that involves all tissues.
Tobacco smoking is one of the most susceptible risk factors for squamous cell cancer, especially in the larynx, mouth, and lung areas. Certain types of HPV virus affect the development of squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx, mouth, cervix, and other areas. Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet radiation may promote the development of squamous cell carcinoma of the skin. Hereditary mutations can increase the likelihood of developing cancer.
Diagnosis at MDI Clinic
The doctor examines the area if a tumor or skin changes are suspected. The oncologist studies the genetic predisposition and takes into account all symptoms.
Biopsy is a key method for diagnosing cancer. The doctor takes a small sample of tumor tissue (or changed tissue) for laboratory analysis. A biopsy can determine the type of tumor, its characteristics, and the degree of malignancy.
Immunoassay is used to detect physical proteins on the surface of a cellular tumor. This helps in identifying the type of cancer and markers to select the best therapies.
Ultrasound is used to evaluate the size and structure of the neoplasm. Sometimes additional tests, such as blood tests, may be performed to evaluate overall changes in organ function.

My cancer treatment in Turkey was an incredible experience. From the excellent medical expertise to the individualized attention to my needs, every detail was taken care of. I felt that my well-being was a priority for the entire team. The results of the treatment speak for themselves and I am grateful for this incredible experience in Turkey. -

Thanks to this team, I'm back to normal. -

After being diagnosed with cancer, he decided to go to Korea for treatment. I cannot overemphasize the level of care and professionalism I encountered there. The team helped not only with medical issues, but also with adaptation in a foreign country. Thank you for the new hope and encouragement! -

MIKHAIL VLADIMIROVICH
"My children took me to doctors with my leg, but we have a lot of lunatics who can't tell us anything. When I found out that my sons wanted to take me to Israel for treatment, I protested, but it was expensive! But everything went quickly, replaced my joint, did not keep me in the hospital not one extra day. Prices are normal for such quality, I began to walk without pain. That's what smart doctors mean." -
ANDREI
"I went to doctors for several months, they could not diagnose me, as is usually the case with us. A friend advised me to come here, he had already been treated here himself. From myself I can say the attitude on 5 +! They ordered a ticket and found me a place to stay at a normal price. In the hospital they examined me, analyzed me, analyzed all kinds of devices and diagnosed me. I have already undergone a course of chemotherapy, and if I need check-ups, I will apply only here. And what would happen to me if I continued to be examined in our hospitals? It's scary to even think about -
Irina Kucherenko
Really enjoyed the MDI clinic. Great attitude towards patients. Applied with the problem of psoriasis (>10 years trying to cure and nothing helps). I was worried about how everything would go, as I was flying from another country, but before arrival everything was discussed with me: what to do, how much time of stay will be needed, cost, accommodation, absolutely everything and I was not so worried. Upon arrival I was met, driven to the hotel and was in constant contact with me. Also gave a local SIM card for communication and internet, drove and accompanied everywhere. Was in Tel Aviv for 3 days and during this time visited the doctor, did all the necessary tests and prescribed treatment. After leaving, I am still in touch with the curators and doctors to find out how the treatment is going, whether the medication is helping, my general health, whether I need to send more medication, etc. I am very glad that I visited MDI clinic, as it was the first time I saw the effect of treatment and that it actually helps. Words can't describe the emotions and feelings when you realize that you will finally be healthy and you can no longer be self-conscious about your skin, wear open clothes, put your hair up however you want, etc. -

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your concern. From the first contact to the last minute of being in Israel, we constantly felt cared for. Meeting at the airport, organization of accommodation, support during the quarantine, useful household advice, help in buying food, accompaniment to procedures and consultations with doctors, help in buying medicines, a clear plan of action and constant information about the progress of treatment - our stay in Tel Aviv was so competently organized that the whole treatment took place in an atmosphere of confidence, calmness and relaxation. There was no stress of being in another country, even though the reason for coming to Israel was not a fun one - my father's metastatic prostate cancer. Special thanks to Catherine, for her heartfelt attitude and involvement with us. Thank you so much! Success, prosperity and grateful patients!
