Surgery has an important role in the long-term management of these patients. Whenever surgery is indicated, the concept of complete removal of the disease must be kept in mind. In this chapter, the authors discuss some issues about the “patient language” during surgery, important information that is frequently missed by surgeons but that must be well known in order to help in the decision-making process intraoperatively.\nAccess this chapter\nTax calculation will be finalised at checkout\nPurchases are for personal use only\nSimilar content being viewed by others\nReferences\nChapron C, Fauconnier A, Vieira M, Barakat H, Dousset B, Pansini V, Vacher-Lavenu MC, Dubuisson JB.
