Cholangiocarcinoma
Cholangiocarcinoma is a heterogeneous group of neoplasms, which has a rising worldwide incidence. Therefore, it is now a major cause of cancer mortality. Diagnosis, staging, treatment approaches and outcomes differ significantly based on the location of the tumor. Given the challenges of remaining up-to-date in a rapidly expanding field, the aim of this monograph is to provide a comprehensive, fully referenced presentation of the state-of-the-art medical and surgical aspects relevant to the management of cholangiocarcinoma divided by the site of origin (i.e. intrahepatic, hilar and distal). The division of the book into these sections reflects the biological and clinical differences between ...
Liver Metastases
This book addresses the contemporary multidisciplinary management of liver metastases. Throughout the text, experience from the paradigms of colorectal cancer metastases treatment strategies are used to point to new directions in the management of liver metastases from other cancers. The book will be invaluable for surgeons in general surgery, hepatobiliary surgery, upper GI surgery, colorectal surgery, medical and clinical oncologists with an interest in liver tumours, and radiologists with an interest in liver disease.
Textbook of Surgical Oncology
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.
Robotic Surgery of Colon and Rectum
This is an open access book. Colorectal surgery is one of the most performed procedures in dedicated colorectal and general surgery units worldwide. In the last two decades, the minimally invasive laparoscopic approach has become very popular worldwide, attracting great interest among patients (lower risk of infection, less pain, and faster recovery) and demonstrating excellent oncological results. Technology is improving rapidly, offering revolutionary innovations, particularly with the advent of robotic surgery, which offers important advantages over laparoscopy for both surgeons and patients: improved ergonomics, wristed instruments, and a better vision. These advantages may be particular...
Interventional Oncology
Interventional oncology has joined surgical, radiation, and medical oncology as the fourth pillar of cancer care. Advances in imaging and image guidance for the detection, characterization, targeting, and therapy of cancer now allow for minimally invasive image-guided treatment of many solid tumors without the morbidity of open surgery or the toxicity of chemotherapy and radiation. The editors have brought together the accrued experience of pioneers and leaders in image-guided cancer therapy from around the globe to create the first comprehensive text for this emerging field. Covering the biology, techniques, clinical applications, and outcomes of interventional oncologic procedures for the treatment and palliation of solid tumors throughout the body, this practical reference will be indispensable for physicians across specialties who seek to provide collaborative, leading-edge care to cancer patients.
Surgical Treatment of Colorectal Liver Metastases
Surgery is the gold standard treatment of colorectal liver metastases. Patients management had a dramatic evolution during the past years: more accurate diagnostic tools and more effective chemotherapy regimens have been introduced and surgical indications have been widely broadened. A multidisciplinary treatment is now mandatory, involving oncologists, radiologists an gastroenterologists. However, many topics are still debated. In the present book all aspects of surgical treatment of colorectal liver metastases are analyzed based on a systematic, updated analysis of the literature. Aim of this book is to provide surgeons, oncologists and radiologists a clear overview of the state-of-the-art of treatment of colorectal liver metastases.
Oncoplastic and Reconstructive Breast Surgery
This book demonstrates why oncoplastic and reconstructive surgery represents such an exciting tool for surgeons who undertake breast surgery. Fundamental principles and basic concepts are clearly outlined, and numerous techniques are presented by acknowledged experts from across the world. The emphasis is very much on a “how to do” approach, with detailed guidance and advice on the various techniques. The informative text is supported by a wealth of color illustrations, and accompanying videos of procedures can be accessed via the publisher’s website. This second edition of Oncoplastic and Reconstructive Breast Surgery has been completely revised and updated. More than 25 additional ch...
Case-Based Lessons in the Management of Complex Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Surgery
This text provides a comprehensive, state-of-the art definitive “case-based” reference for the work-up, diagnosis, intraoperative management, and peri-operative care of patients with complex, difficult to manage HPB diseases. The book provides a practical, clinically useful guide that reviews select complicated HPB cases, as well as providing key information on how to manage such patients. This text provides detailed “case-based” algorithms, as well as specific guidance on the management of complicated HPB patients. In addition, it also focuses on key points on how to work-up patients pre-operatively, highlights intra-operative technical “pearls”, and defines optimal post-operati...
