ESMO Handbook of Cancer in the Senior Patient de Dirk Schrijvers

ESMO Handbook of Cancer in the Senior Patient: European Society for Medical Oncology Handbooks

Editat de Dirk Schrijvers, Matti Aapro, Branko Zakotnik, Riccardo Audisio, Hendrik van Halteren, Hurria Arti
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 mai 2010
Cancer is a disease related to ageing, and the proportion of senior patients increases worldwide. While the proportion of persons beyond age 70 is still small in developing countries, their numerous population means that there are more "elderlies" in India than in Europe. This book reflects the state of the art in the management of senior adults with cancer. This handbook leaves ample space for chapters that help in the delicate decisionmaking process, which should lead to the best therapy, adapted not only to the disease but also to the person who suffers from it.

The incidence of cancer in senior patients has been increasing worldwide. This book reflects the state of the art in the management of senior adults with cancer. The contributors discuss epidemiology, evaluation, surgical and radiotherapy treatment, hormonal and cytotoxic treatment, and specific cancers such as lung, breast, colorectal, prostate, bladder, gynecological, and renal cell cancer.

Designed to help clinicians with the delicate decision-making process, it should lead to the best therapy adapted not only to the disease but also the patient.
