What are the Treatment Options for Endocrinopathies in Cancer Patients?
Treatment depends on the underlying cause and the specific endocrinopathy. Options may include:
Hormone Replacement Therapy: For conditions such as hypothyroidism or adrenal insufficiency. Medications: Drugs to manage symptoms, such as bisphosphonates for hypercalcemia or antidiuretic hormone antagonists for SIADH. Surgical Intervention: Removal of tumors affecting endocrine function. Adjusting Cancer Treatment: Modifying or discontinuing cancer therapies that cause endocrinopathies.
