AlbakiReads Editorial

Cancer surgery in a multidisciplinary context

This professional reference places operative oncology within the wider sequence of cancer care, connecting surgical decisions with tumor boards, staging, imaging, pathology, biomarkers, referrals, and perioperative planning. Its coverage spans breast, skin, sarcoma, gastrointestinal, hepatobiliary, pancreatic, endocrine, neuroendocrine, peritoneal, and colorectal malignancies. The book also addresses decisions around co-management and operative goals, alongside frailty assessment, prehabilitation, ERAS principles, palliation, survivorship, and communication with patients. The organizing idea is that operative judgment depends on information and expertise across specialties, making the volume a decision framework as well as a survey of cancer surgery topics.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • General surgeons, senior surgical residents, and fellows seeking a professional reference on surgical oncology decisions.
  • Cancer care teams interested in multidisciplinary planning, tumor board work, and coordination across specialties.

Book overview

Cancer surgery is no longer a solo operation-it is a coordinated decision pathway.

Surgical Oncology for the General Surgeon: Multidisciplinary Decision-Making is a practical professional reference for general surgeons, senior surgical residents, fellows, and cancer care teams who need a clear framework for modern operative oncology. Instead of treating cancer surgery as an isolated technical event, this book places each operation inside the tumor board workflow, staging process, biomarker review, pathology report, referral decision, perioperative plan, and long-term survivorship pathway.

Built around the real decisions surgeons face in clinical practice, this volume helps you connect operative judgment with medical oncology, radiation oncology, radiology, pathology, genetics, palliative care, and patient-centered communication.
  • Clarify when to operate, refer, co-manage, or reconsider the operative goal.
  • Apply staging, imaging, biopsy, biomarkers, margin assessment, and quality metrics to surgical planning.
  • Navigate breast, skin, sarcoma, gastrointestinal, hepatobiliary, pancreatic, endocrine, neuroendocrine, peritoneal, and colorectal malignancies.
  • Strengthen tumor board presentations with structured, evidence-aware decision logic.
  • Integrate frailty assessment, prehabilitation, ERAS principles, palliation, survivorship, and special population considerations.
  • Support safer multidisciplinary conversations without relying on a single-specialty viewpoint.
If you want a decision-focused surgical oncology reference that helps translate complex cancer evidence into practical operative planning, this book gives you a clear framework for the modern cancer surgery environment.
