The Challenge and the Opportunity of Cardio-Oncology: When Cardiovascular Disease and Cancer Intersect

Andishe Kearns*

Cardiovascular disease and cancer are two leading causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Traditionally, these diseases have been viewed and managed separately, with little consideration for the potential interactions and overlap between them. However, recent advances in cancer treatments and improved survival rates have unveiled a complex interplay between cardiovascular health and cancer, giving rise to the emerging field of cardio-oncology. It will explore the challenge and opportunity of cardio-oncology, emphasizing the need for increased awareness, education, and research in this evolving field. By integrating cardiovascular and oncology care, healthcare providers can enhance patient outcomes, improve survivorship, and enhance quality of life for individuals affected by cancer and cardiovascular disease. A comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms underlying the cardiovascular-cancer connection will pave the way for novel therapeutic strategies and preventive interventions, ultimately improving patient care and outcomes in both fields.
