Download or read book Textbook of Surgical Oncology written by Graeme J. Poston and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2007-11-15 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surgery alone cures more than 60% of those patients whose cancer are amenable to curative treatment. Surgical oncology is not universally accepted as a unified discipline worldwide. There are many reasons for this situation, including the drive to anatomic site specialization, but also the need to provide comprehensive 'general' surgical provision to more isolated and rural communities. Textbook of Surgical Oncology, written by a highly acclaimed list of international authors, comprehensively covers the role of the surgical oncologist in the management of patients with solid tumors. This book provides a state of the art review of cancer surgery for senior residents approaching certification at the completion of their training as well as providing an up to date reference work for established clinicians in their day to day practice, including those in general surgery, surgical oncology, urologists, gynecologists, thoracic, neurosurgical, radiation oncologist and medical oncologists.

Download or read book Surgical Oncology Clinical Principles and Practice written by Jonah Armstrong and published by . This book was released on 2019-06-27 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surgery is the primary mode of treatment for solid, isolated tumors. It can have a significant impact in the prolongation of survival and palliation. After a biopsy is performed on the affected area to determine the presence or absence of the cancer along with the stage of cancer, surgery is performed. In localized cancer, surgery is done to remove the entire mass and in certain cases the lymph nodes. Such an intervention is deemed sufficient in some cases, while in others, treatment modalities such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, etc. are also put to use. The branch of surgery that is concerned with the surgical management of cancerous tumors is known as surgical oncology. This book covers in detail some existing theories and innovative concepts revolving around surgical oncology. Some of the diverse topics covered in this book address the varied practices of surgical oncology and the recent advances in this domain. It includes contributions of experts and scientists, which will provide innovative insights into this field.

This handbook is a practical reference for today's surgeons who actively manage cancer patients in both the acute and out-patient setting. It covers all the key areas, from initial presentation and diagnosis, investigation and staging, to active discussion in collaborative multidisciplinary cancer network meetings, operative management, post-operative care, and long term surveillance and palliation. Drawing together all the varied guidelines and source materials that form the basis of this complex subject, it is the first surgical oncology text that provides instant access to detailed clinical algorithms and operative techniques covering the wide range of cancers that general surgeons encounter, from GI tract to breast and endocrine cancers.
