Abstract

The purpose of this book is to outline the topics that are critical in the dermatological approach to patients with cancer. The work discusses the value of a multidisciplinary approach, presents case examples, including some from the Hospital Sírio-Libanês, a pioneer institution in the treatment of cancer. In all, the book collates the best global evidence for the dermatologic care of patients with cancer, skin cancer, and solid organ and bone-marrow transplanted patients. The clinical, surgical, pathologic, imaging, radiotherapy, oncologic, and palliative care aspects of the dermatologic care of cancer patients is covered. Chapters also discuss subjects such as genetics, biology, evidence-based medicine, and new diagnostic methods and tools like dermoscopy and confocal microscopy. The content is based on the following key areas: educating clinicians on how to prevent skin cancer in patients, screening and counseling, diagnosis and treatment of pigmented lesions, melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancer, cutaneous lymphomas, sarcomas, leukemic and lymphomatous infiltrations, cutaneous metastases, cutaneous paraneoplasic manifestations and cutaneous adverse reactions to chemotherapy and radiation treatment. The primary audiences are dermatologists, oncologists, radioncologists and oncologic surgeons. The secondary audience are residents and students in these fields. The goal is to prepare and update all specialists on this important clinical and research area.
