Abstract

The approach to malignant diseases re-emphasizes the need for a team, multidisciplinary approach to patients with cancer. Knowledge of the basic surgical principles of potentially curative resection, with all its technical details and anatomical and pathophysiological features, is therefore crucial in the treatment of these patients. Primarily, such multidisciplinary cooperation comes to the fore when planning radical and palliative procedures for advanced cancer. In addition, postoperative follow-up of operated patients requires the knowledge of some important elements of surgery on other organs to timely detect possible complications and the most successful postoperative treatment in general.
