Ophthalmic Oncology (M.D. Anderson Solid Tumor Oncology Series)






Ophthalmic Oncology (M.D. Anderson Solid Tumor Oncology Series) by Bita Esmaeli highlights the unique aspects of ophthalmic oncology as a surgical and medical discipline practiced at a Comprehensive Cancer Center. The multidisciplinary management of ocular, orbital, and ocular adnexal (eyelid, conjunctival, and periocular soft tissues) cancers is emphasized, as well as the current recommendations and practices at our institution. In addition, ocular conditions caused as a direct result of cancer treatment are reviewed using illustrative photographs and case presentations. The authors include ophthalmology faculty members, current and former M.D. Anderson fellows, and experts in complementary disciplines such as radiation oncology, dermatopathology, ophthalmic pathology, radiology, plastic surgery, and other surgical subspecialties.
The content is provided by full-time ophthalmology faculty and fellows at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. Experts in complementary disciplines such as ophthalmic pathology, dermatopathology, radiation oncology, radiology, and other surgical subspecialties, bring a novel perspective to each chapter. Clinical photographs and case presentations help clinicians, practicing general ophthalmologists, orbital and oculoplastics specialists, medical and surgical oncologists, and ophthalmology residents and fellows to correctly diagnose cancers of the orbit, eye, and adnexal structures, initiate  propriate management, as well as recognize and treat common ocular complications of cancer therapy. With an abundance of clinical photographs, clinicians will be able to correctly diagnose cancers of the orbit, eye, and ocular adnexal structures.
