Go with the Flow: Using Plumbing (and Humor) to Manage Malignant Obstructions in Hospitalized Cancer Patients - On Demand 2026
Pipes clog; patients shouldn't. In this fast-paced, humor-laced session for inpatient oncology teams, you'll identify and recognize malignant bowel, ureteral, airway, and biliary obstructions, then manage them using memorable "plumbing" fixes like unclog, bypass, and release. We'll review cutting-edge GI procedures and apply clear algorithms you can evaluate and refine on the wards, so you leave ready to synthesize findings and keep therapy on track.
