This is the third volume on gastrointestinal cancer of the Cancer
Treatment and Research Series. The emphasis in this volume is to
present a series of papers on areas of high clinical relevance in
malignant diseases of the gut. As in the first and second volumes
of this series, authors have been selected for their expertise and
national and international prominence in their fields. This volume
is organized so that papers explaining basic science pro spec tives
proceed those dealing with clinical aspects of gastrointestinal
cancer. It is clear that in many instances advances
gastrointestinal carcinoma cannot be effectively treated if ' cure'
is the desired goal. When faced with poorly treatable diseases it
is obviously important to look toward the causes and prevention of
these illnesses. For this reason, there are several chapters in
this volume that examine the issue of carcinogenesis of
gastrointestinal cancer. Likewise, in diseases that are poorly
treatable in advances stages, one is interested in early detection.
Thus, early screening of populations becomes important and is dealt
with in three papers in this volume. Chapt ers on treatment explore
innovative approaches to therapy of gastrointesti nal cancer.
Second-look surgery with resection, arterial perfusion with che
motherapy, adjuvant therapy and neoadjuvant therapy are all
addressed in various chapters in this volume. Finally, four
chapters deal with unusual problems in gastrointestinal cancer.
These papers include discussions ofpri mary hepatobillary cancer,
lymphoma of the gut, and gastrointestinal endo crine tumors."
