<p>Although surgery remains the mainstay of treatment for the patient diagnosed with a solid tumor, how a patient is cared for before and after surgery has undergone dramatic changes in recent years. Surgical Oncology Nursing provides nurses with a detailed examination of surgical patients with cancer from diagnosis to survivorship. The care of the surgical patient with cancer involves a diverse healthcare team with many hands touching the patient at different stages, and the editors of this book bring a varied set of backgrounds, from nurse navigation to advanced practice nursing. Chapters in Surgical Oncology Nursing provide nurses with details on diagnosis, preoperative and perioperative care, nutritional care, surgical wounds and ostomy care, as well as survivorship issues. The book also focuses on the surgical care needed for patients with different types of tumors. In all, 11 types of cancer are reviewed. Whether care is provided in a dedicated, oncology setting or within a diverse patient care environment, nurses need the type of knowledge found in this book to provide the best care possible for this unique patient population.</p>
