Perioperative management of patients with gynecological cancers.

Oncological surgery is the primary treatment for gynecological malignancies and is inseparably linked with anesthesia. The modern approach to interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary perioperative care in gynecologic oncological patients improves the outcome. This paper presents a review of perioperative management of patients with gynecologic oncology related to enhanced recovery after surgery and cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. We performed a literature search on MEDLINE, EMBASE, Google Scholar, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Clinical Trials. The database search focused on selected topics related to perioperative gynecological oncology care. The authors also contributed through individual, independent literature searches.
