This book presents an Asian perspective on how the treatment of
colorectal cancer can be optimized and standardized in ways that
take into account technological advances and the trend towards
individually tailored therapy. Readers will find careful,
well-illustrated descriptions of the standard surgical techniques
for rectal cancer and colon cancer that have contributed to recent
improvements in 5-year survival rates in the Asia-Pacific region,
where the incidence of colorectal cancer has been rising alarmingly
due to lifestyle changes. The vital role now being played by
minimally invasive laparoscopic and robotic options receives
detailed scrutiny. Extent and timing of surgery, patient safety,
risk of complications, and unresolved issues are all discussed.
Furthermore, the use of surgery within the context of multimodal
management including chemotherapy and radiotherapy is explained and
an integrated approach for stage IV and recurrent disease is
described. The book will serve as a valuable reference for young
surgeons who are in training, experienced practitioners who want to
enhance their knowledge and skills, and all others who wish to
learn about this field.
