Handbook of Gastrointestinal Cancers is a practical guide to the
management of colorectal, pancreatic, hepatocellular, gastric, and
esophageal cancers as well as other cancers of the upper and lower
GI tract. Edited by a multidisciplinary group of oncologists from
leading institutions, this book is an essential day-to-day
reference for evidence-based treatment and patient care. The
handbook focuses on treatment strategies and approaches to
cancerous GI tumors that are transforming the recent oncological
landscape, including expert-given guidance on methods such as
neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy, surgical transplant,
radiation therapy, molecular diagnostic testing leading to
molecularly targeted therapy, and immunotherapy. With so many
advances in the current field, it is increasingly difficult for
early-career practitioners to grasp the entirety of practices and
for seasoned oncologists to keep up with newly approved therapies,
side effects to treatments, and special clinical management
considerations, but this handbook addresses it all. Organized by
major GI disease sites and featuring "How I Treat" case vignettes
from world experts for common and uncommon management
considerations, the handbook brings an experience-based perspective
to these tough-to-treat areas. The treatment strategies and
applications set forth in the chapters are pertinent to clinical
situations and clinical decision-making encountered in practice.
Handbook of Gastrointestinal Cancers is a valuable resource for
medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, and surgeons treating
and managing gastrointestinal cancers as well as trainees in
medical, radiation, and surgical oncology programs needing an
accessible point of care resource. Key Features: Provides treatment
plans and recommendations for each stage of a range of
gastrointestinal cancers, including colorectal, pancreatic, and
hepatocellular cancers plus more Includes patient vignettes told
from the physician's point of view within each clinical chapter
Outlines special considerations for the elderly and for survivors
of GI cancers Highlights important clinical guidance on nutritional
and palliative concerns commonly seen in patients with GI cancers
