The care of older patients differs from that of younger adults because of variation in the biology of the tumor, age-related variation in host physiology, co-morbidity burden and psychosocial issues, which might impact the efficacy and side effects of cancer therapy. Management of Urological Cancers in Older People focuses on treatment strategies of urological cancers and provides guidance on the issues specific to older patients, spanning background and epidemiology, special considerations in the care of older people, therapeutics, and psychosocial considerations. This book offers a thorough review of current approaches to treating older urological cancer patients, detailing the special issues and considerations involved. The discipline-spanning coverage outlines best practice and proposes topics for future research. This first volume in the Management of Cancer in Older People series will be of interest to all surgical oncologists, medical oncologists, gerontologists, urologists and other members of the multidisciplinary team involved  in the care of elderly urological cancer patients. 410 0$aManagement of Cancer in Older People ;$v1 606 $aOncology   606 $aGeriatrics 606 $aUrology 606 $aOncology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33160 606 $aGeriatrics/Gerontology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33150 606 $aUrology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H62002 615 0$aOncology  . 615 0$aGeriatrics. 615 0$aUrology. 615 14$aOncology. 615 24$aGeriatrics/Gerontology. 615 24$aUrology. 676 $a616.9946 700 $aDroz$b Jean-Pierre$c(Medical doctor)$01242131 702 $aDroz$b Jean-Pierre$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aAudisio$b Riccardo A$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 712 02$aInternational Society of Geriatric Oncology. 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910438019603321 996 $aManagement of Urological Cancers in Older People$92881222 997 $aUNINA
