摘要
With a unique focus on the most effective interventional techniques, Withrow & MacEwen's Small Animal Clinical Oncology, 5th Edition tells the full story of cancer in dogs and cats - what it is, how to diagnose it, and how to treat many of the most common cancers encountered in clinical practice. Nearly 500 color photographs, diagrams, x-rays, and gross views depict the clinical manifestations of various cancers. This edition covers the latest advances in clinical oncology, including chemotherapy, surgical oncology, and diagnostic techniques. With contributions from 65 veterinary oncology experts, this authoritative reference is a must-have for current, evidence-based therapeutic strategies on canine and feline oncology.
"I really love this book. If you are interested in veterinary oncology, have a flick through this book online or at a conference when you get the chance. I hope that you agree with me that this is the definitive oncology reference source for the early 21st century and that you feel compelled to buy it. Your patients will thank you for it."

Cutting-edge information on the complications of cancer, pain management, and the latest treatment modalities prepares you to diagnose and treat pets with cancer rather than refer cases to a specialist. A consistent format for chapters on body system tumors includes coverage of incidence and risk factors, pathology, natural behavior of tumors, history and clinical signs, diagnostic techniques and workup, treatment options, and prognosis for specific malignancies. A systems approach to the diagnosis and management of cancer facilitates access to information about the many malignancies affecting small animal patients. Nearly 500 color images provide accurate depictions of specific diseases and procedures. Helpful drug formularies provide quick access to information on indications, toxicities, and recommended dosages for chemotherapeutic and analgesic drugs used in cancer treatment. Expert contributors provide in-depth coverage of the most current information in his or her respective specialty in veterinary oncology. Chemotherapy protocols are included when case studies prove clinical efficacy. Discussion of compassion and supportive care for the management of pain, nutritional needs, and grief includes methods for handling the pet's pain and nutritional complications as well as the pet owner's grief when treatment is not successful. Thoroughly UPDATED chapters cover the most recent changes in the clinical management of melanoma, mast cell tumors, tumors of the skeletal system, tumors of the endocrine system, tumors of the mammary gland, urinary cancers, nervous system cancers, lymphoma, and histiocytic diseases. NEW Clinical Trials and Developmental Therapeutics chapter discusses the various phases of clinical trials as well as current challenges and opportunities in oncology drug development. NEW! A focus on the best recommended treatment options highlights therapeutic strategies that have been vetted by veterinary oncology experts. NEW co-author Dr. Rodney L. Page adds his valuable perspective, expertise, and research experience.评论 (1)

This book provides up-to-date, state-of-the-art information on all aspects of comparative oncology, from the epidemiology and known causes of cancer in companion animals to the latest in diagnostic and therapeutic modalities. The previous edition was published six years ago. The purpose is to detail the most recently proposed and confirmed mechanisms of disease and treatment of disease. New information pertaining to cancer biology, cancer epidemiology, and clinical trials is especially helpful. Written for students and practitioners of veterinary medicine, the book is a highly useful aid for the study and management of oncological disease by all who are engaged in the study or practice of veterinary medicine, from students and general practitioners to boarded specialists. The authors are authorities in the fields of veterinary oncology, pathology, and surgery. The book successfully covers all areas of cancer biology and treatment, and provides succinct and informative summaries of known epidemiology and risk factors for the development of many cancers. Of special note is the completeness of the chapter dedicated to paraneoplastic conditions, which is unique aspect to this book. Special attention also is given to supportive care of cancer patients and to client education, often the most difficult tasks faced by veterinarians treating cancer in companion animals. This is a timely and thorough update that provides an accurate, inclusive summary of clinical studies and recommendations for practitioners treating cancers of all kinds in companion animals. The attention paid to the peripheral aspects of cancer diagnosis and management, such as the recognition and treatment of paraneoplastic conditions, is noteworthy.
