Experienced in Retroperitoneal Fibrosis

Overview

I was drawn to medicine and specifically to the field of interventional radiology because of my desire to help patients using the most up to date technologies and minimally invasive techniques. Our ability to treat diverse illnesses such as liver and kidney cancer, vascular disease and infections though a tiny incision just a few millimeters in size allows me to achieve my ultimate goal: helping patients recover from their illnesses faster with less discomfort and less inconvenience. In addition to treating patients, I also participate in research to help advance the field of interventional radiology and ensure that we have the knowledge to provide the highest quality care for our patients.

Interventional radiology allows me to perform minimally invasive procedures to treat a wide array of problems. Through tiny incisions on the skin that most frequently don’t require stitches, I insert a catheter, direct it to the problem area using imaging guidance (x-rays and/or ultrasound), and treat the problem. My areas of clinical focus include women (fibroids, adenomyosis, post-partum hemorrhage, placenta increta or percreta, occluded Fallopian tubes, chronic pelvic pain from pelvic congestion), children (venous malformations, arteriovenous malformations, combined malformations, difficult venous access), and lymphatics (lymphatic malformations, lymphoceles, chylothorax, chylous ascites, plastic bronchitis, protein losing enteropathy). To me, the most fulfilling part of interventional radiology is to provide patients effective minimally invasive alternatives to surgical procedures with fewer risks and shorter recovery times. Dr. Pabon is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Retroperitoneal Fibrosis. Her top areas of expertise are Chylous Ascites, Kimura Disease, Arteriovenous Malformation, Liver Embolization, and Thrombectomy.
