Book Synopsis
The significant advances in medical, surgical and social care during the last two decades in the western world have resulted in a considerable prolongation of life expectancy. However, on the other hand, aged populations present a high incidence of neoplasias ideally requiring surgical or multidisciplinary therapeutic strategies. The decision making for providing the appropriate surgical care in these patients is a difficult and multivariant task. This book examines cancer surgery in elderly patients, as well as a need for a more ''personalised'' approach and a thorough discussion of their disease treatment and status of life.
