Surgery for Ovarian Cancer
A genuinely comprehensive surgical text, this book covers the effective management of ovarian cancer and provides a step-by-step account of ovarian cancer surgery from initial assessment to post-operative follow-up, including the theoretical basis for surgical principles and techniques.
With particular focus on the technical aspects of cytoreductive surgery, the book includes topics such as:
• pre-operative preparation, incisions/wound healing
• surgical instrumentation
• the management of apparent early-stage ovarian cancer
• surgical staging.
Exquisitely illustrated with specially commissioned artwork, photographs and imaging, which show the main stages of each procedure, this is a key text for anyone in the field.
