Abstract

An evidence-based guidebook that will assist the physician to manage the older cancer patient implementing the appropriate treatment strategy taking account of comorbidities, frailty, and patient choice. Each clinical case will include a concise discussion on patient presentation and of scenarios underpinning issues experienced by older patients followed by a clear appraisal of how the latest clinical research impacts on patient management. This large cohort of patients requires both innovative care and individual attention,and this carefully crafted book shares the experience of an expert multidisciplinary team in the interest of patient centred care.
