The role of a multidisciplinary approach in the rehabilitation of a cardio-oncological patient over 65 years old (a clinical case)

Abstract

Given the common risk factors and mechanisms of development, the radical treatment of colorectal cancer in patients with concomitant cardiovascular diseases (CVD) requires the integration of oncologists, cardiologists, and other specialists from related disciplines. For optimal monitoring of onco-cardiology patients, a multidisciplinary approach is required and, accordingly, the creation of professional cardio-oncological teams. The review presents a clinical case of surgical treatment of coronary heart disease and newly diagnosed adenocarcinoma of the ascending colon in a 75‑year-old patient. The features of the management and rehabilitation of the patient at all stages of inpatient surgical oncology treatment in a multidisciplinary surgical clinic are described.
