Perioperative management of paraneoplastic syndromes.
This discussion of paraneoplasia is by no means exhaustive, but it does represent the more common conditions seen in the surgical oncology patient. A thorough understanding of biologic behavior of different tumor types allows the surgeon to recognize cases in which special attention is needed for the management of paraneoplastic syndromes. In this way, problems are averted, minimizing risk to the patient and increasing the likelihood of a successful surgical outcome.
