Review Title: | Perioperative considerations for cancer patients with obesity: A narrative review |
Abstract: | Cancer in patients with obesity has become increasingly common throughout much of the world. Based on our experiences in a specialized cancer center, we have developed a set of standards and expectations that should streamline the surgical journey for this patient population. These recommendations should inform the perioperative management of oncology patients with obesity and help raise awareness of this critical and under-discussed topic. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd |
