Area of Expertise
Interventional Oncology
Patients with liver, kidney, and other solid tumours are treated using image-guided, minimally invasive techniques that destroy or control tumours without open surgery. Dr Sreedhara has been part of the IR team that performed the first cryoablation procedure in India and the first irreversible electroporation procedure in Southeast Asia, with published research on both:
- Cryoablation of liver and renal tumours
- Irreversible Electroporation (IRE) for unresectable tumours
- Microwave Ablation (MWA)
- Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA)
- Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE) for hepatocellular carcinoma
- Transarterial Radioembolization (TARE / Y-90) for advanced liver cancer
Hepatobiliary Interventions
Patients with complex liver, bile duct, and portal vein conditions are managed using percutaneous and endovascular techniques, including several advanced procedures for Budd-Chiari syndrome and portal hypertension:
- Percutaneous Transhepatic Biliary Drainage (PTBD) and biliary stenting
- Percutaneous cholecystostomy
- Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (TIPS)
- Direct Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (DIPS)
- Balloon-Occluded Retrograde Transvenous Obliteration (BRTO)
- CARTO and PARTO procedures
- Hepatic vein stenting and IVC stenting for Budd-Chiari syndrome
- Portomesenteric thrombosis recanalization
Vascular Interventions
Patients with venous disease, vascular blockages, and arterial bleeding are managed using catheter-based and percutaneous techniques, including emergency embolization for life-threatening haemorrhage:
- DVT recanalization
- IVC filter placement
- Fistuloplasty
- Central venous stenosis recanalization and stenting
- Embolization for visceral artery aneurysms and pseudoaneurysms
- Emergency embolization for obstetric and gastrointestinal bleeding
- Genicular artery embolization for knee osteoarthritis
Women's Health Interventions
Patients with uterine fibroids or postpartum haemorrhage are treated using uterine artery embolization as a minimally invasive alternative to surgery:
- Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE)
- Uterine Artery Embolization for postpartum haemorrhage (PPH)
Urological Interventions
Patients with urinary tract obstruction or varicocele are managed using image-guided percutaneous and endovascular approaches:
- Nephrostomy
- Ureteric stenting
- Varicocele embolization
Image-Guided Biopsy and Drainage
Patients requiring tissue diagnosis or drainage of fluid collections are managed using real-time ultrasound or CT guidance for safe and accurate access:
- Ultrasound-guided biopsy and drainage
- CT-guided biopsy and drainage

Write a ReviewMy mother underwent a vascular procedure under Dr. Sreedhara B C. Results were good and hospital stay was short.
Dr. Sreedhara explained my angiography reports very clearly. Friendly doctor and very professional approach throughout treatment.
My father was advised an interventional procedure for a liver tumour and we were extremely anxious before meeting Dr. Sreedhara B C. He explained the entire interventional oncology treatment in simple language and discussed every possible risk carefully. The procedure was done smoothly at Manipal Hospital and recovery was much faster than we expected. What impressed us most was his calm attitude and confidence during follow-ups. After months of uncertainty, we finally felt hopeful again. Truly grateful for the care and support throughout the treatment journey.
Dr. Sreedhara B C guided us properly for my uncle’s tumour embolization procedure. He explained every report patiently and made sure we understood the treatment plan. The procedure was minimally painful and recovery was quicker than expected. Very experienced and humble doctor.
Consulted Dr. Sreedhara for liver-related intervention at Manipal Hospital, Old Airport Road. He is very calm and explains things in simple terms. Kannada alli maatadidru so my parents felt comfortable during consultation. Treatment process was smooth and well managed.
