Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Surgical treatment is considered the gold standard approach for most abdominal tumors. Despite the introduction of various therapeutic modalities in the field of surgical oncology, surgical resection of intra-abdominal and abdominal wall malignancies allows optimal source control and enhanced oncological outcomes. Several aspects of surgical management, including operative technique and perioperative optimization, have been identified as prognostic factors for morbidity, mortality, and tumor-free survival. Subsequently, to augment postoperative outcomes, current research efforts focus on refining each individual domain of operative management of abdominal tumors.
We are pleased to invite you to this Special Issue, entitled “Surgical Treatment of Abdominal Tumors”, of Cancers. This Special Issue aims to highlight recent advancements in the surgical management of abdominal tumors while also addressing all current application issues and future research directions.
In this Special Issue, original research studies and review articles are welcome. Research topics may include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Surgery for intra-abdominal and abdominal wall malignancies;
- Improving oncological efficacy;
- Enhanced recovery after an abdominal tumor resection;
- Adjunctive surgical techniques;
- The role of minimally invasive approaches.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
