Abstract

Cardio-oncology is a discipline born as part of cardiology to help oncologists in maintaining cancer treatment in order to limit the risk of treatment interruption. The need of this discipline arose due to the increasing evidence of cardiovascular adverse events related to several cancer drugs. These adverse events include heart failure, left ventricular dysfunction, systemic hypertension, pulmonary hypertension, coronary artery disease, peripheral artery disease, stroke, venous thromboembolism, arrhythmias, pericardial disease, and valvular disease. Each adverse event should be managed early and adequately to avoid deterioration of the pathological condition. Careful cardiological monitoring should be initiated before treatment, during, and after treatment. Cardio-oncologists must carry out a careful medical history in order to correct cardiovascular risk factors and optimize therapy, especially in the presence of pre-existing cardiological conditions.
