An institutional task force on upper gastrointestinal tumours is active at the European Institute of Oncology (EIO). Members decided to collate the institutional guidelines on management of liver tumours (primary and metastatic) into a document. This article is aimed at presenting the current treatment guidelines as well as ongoing research protocols and trials in this field at the EIO.
A steering committee convened to assign tasks to individual members. Contributions from experts in each treatment area were collated in a single document, in order to produce a draft for subsequent review from the aforementioned committee. Six drafts have been discussed and the final version approved.
Surgical, medical oncology, interventional radiology, nuclear medicine and radiation therapy approaches, their roles in management of liver tumours and ongoing research trials are presented and discussed in this article.
At the EIO a multi-disciplinary integrated approach to liver tumours is standard and several ongoing research projects are currently active in this field.
欧洲肿瘤研究所(EIO)有一个关于上消化道肿瘤的机构特别工作组。成员们决定将关于肝脏肿瘤(原发性和转移性)管理的机构指南整理成一份文件。本文旨在介绍EIO目前在该领域的治疗指南以及正在进行的研究方案和试验。
召开了一个指导委员会,为各个成员分配任务。每个治疗领域的专家贡献被整理在一份文件中,以便为上述委员会的后续审查生成一份草案。已经讨论了六份草案并批准了最终版本。
本文介绍并讨论了外科、医学肿瘤学、介入放射学、核医学和放射治疗方法,它们在肝脏肿瘤管理中的作用以及正在进行的研究试验。
在EIO,对肝脏肿瘤采用多学科综合方法是标准做法,目前该领域有几个正在进行的研究项目。
