While providing vital and time-sensitive cancer patient care, the authors have documented lessons learned battling serious diseases and co-morbidities during the COVID-19 emergency.
In addition to an emphasis on the surgical issues of specific diseases, Head and Neck Cancer Care in a Pandemic looks at multidisciplinary patient management, education, social issues impact, and general considerations such as telemedicine and protective equipment.
The editors have arranged the text in six sections:
- General Considerations
- Patient Management Consideration
- Subsite-Specific Considerations (Mucosal)
- Subsite-Specific Considerations (Nonmucosal)
- Education in the COVID-19 Era
