Opis: Lecture Notes: Oncology - Jonathan Waxman, Mark Bower

Cancer is one of the most exciting specialties in medicine. This book aspires to convey the authors enthusiasm for oncology and this new edition of Oncology Lecture Notes is a must for students and trainees. There has been a revolution in the practice of oncology. The changes are due to amazing advances in basic science, and the development of new drugs and successful immunisation programmes that have followed. Cancer death rates have fallen and this is in part due to radical new treatments, effective screening programmes, and also, as a result of popular movements for change in patient care, and decreased exposure to carcinogens. Completely revised and updated, this new edition of Oncology Lecture Notes describes advances in molecular biology research and highlights the importance of patient perspectives in cancer care. The text includes many new figures and tables, an update of molecular biology and highlights new treatments. With learning objectives and key point summaries in each chapter, Oncology Lecture Notes is an ideal introduction to the biological basis and principles of treatment in oncology. Includes a companion website at www.lecturenoteseries.com/oncology featuring cases and self-assessment MCQsPreface vi About the companion website vii Part 1 Introduction to oncology 1 What is cancer? 3 2 The scientific basis of cancer 22 3 The principles of cancer treatment 52 4 Cancer and people 96 Part 2 Types of cancer 5 Breast cancer 107 6 Central nervous system cancers 116 7 Oesophageal cancer 124 8 Gastric cancer 128 9 Hepatobiliary cancer 132 10 Pancreatic cancer 137 11 Colorectal cancer 143 12 Kidney cancer 151 13 Bladder cancer 156 14 Prostate cancer 161 15 Testis cancer 169 16 Gestational trophoblastic disease 175 17 Cervical cancer 178 18 Endometrial cancer 183 19 Ovarian cancer 186 20 Head and neck cancers 193 21 Thyroid cancer 200 22 Adrenal cancers 203 23 Carcinoid tumours 206 24 Pituitary tumours 210 25 Parathyroid cancers 212 26 Lung cancer 214 27 Mesothelioma 224 28 The leukaemias 227 29 Hodgkin s lymphoma 238 30 Non-Hodgkin s lymphoma 244 31 Myeloma 252 32 Non-melanoma skin tumours 258 33 Melanoma 264 34 Paediatric solid tumours 271 35 Cancers in teenagers and young adults 279 36 Bone and soft tissue sarcomas 281 37 Cancer of unknown primary 289 38 Immunodeficiency-related cancers 295 Part 3 The practice of oncology 39 Paraneoplastic complications of cancer 303 40 Oncological emergencies 314 41 End of life care 334 42 Cancer survivorship 339 Index 341
