Abstract

Onco-surgical patients are usually complex, of long duration, associated with extensive tissue handling and blood loss with fluid shifts. More and more number of patients are undergoing surgeries with one or more comorbidities like coronary artery diseases (CAD), hypertension (HTN), diabetes mellitus (DM), thyroid disorder and other associated comorbidities. Management and planning for perioperative care in view of associated comorbidities remains a challenge. The complex onco-surgeries require inter-disciplinary co-operation for an effective preoperative evaluation and optimisation of a patient with significant comorbidity. At a time where medical information is grown vast and boundless, it is difficult if not entirely impossible for even the most astute surgeon and anaesthesiologist alike to keep up with rapidly changing concepts in other medical specialities.
