Extravasation, the unintended leakage of intravenously administered substances, poses significant challenges in cancer treatment, particularly during chemotherapy and radiotherapy. This comprehensive review explores pathophysiology, incidence, risk factors, clinical presentation, diagnosis, prevention strategies, management approaches, complications, long-term effects extravasation patients. It also outlines future directions research opportunities, including identifying gaps current knowledge proposing areas for further investigation management. Emerging technologies therapies with potential to improve both radiotherapy are highlighted. Such innovations include advanced vein visualization technologies, smart catheters, targeted drug delivery systems, novel topical treatments, artificial intelligence-based image analysis. By addressing these aspects, this not only provides healthcare professionals insights enhance patient safety optimize practice but underscores importance ongoing innovation improving outcomes patients experiencing events.
