Outcomes Research in Surgical OncologyClifford Y. Ko, MD, MS, MSHS, Guest Editor
Approximately 1.5 million new cancers are diagnosed every year in the United States. Despite improvements in medical therapy, surgical resection remains the only hope for cure and is the primary treatment modality for many of these patients. Countless reports in the past decade have documented wide variation in cancer care quality, and substantial resources have been spent attempting to narrow these treatment gaps. Nevertheless, improving outcomes for any given patient with cancer is a complicated and sometimes monumental endeavor that requires the coordinated effort of all parts of an equally complicated health care system.
