,Foreword

The best chance to cure cancer is to remove the tissue at risk before malignant
transformation, and this concept extends to abnormal tissue that may ulti-
mately require radical surgical resection. This comprehensive and timely text,
and the first, addresses the increasingly recognized and accepted role of sur-
gical resection to prevent cancer mortality and long-term morbidity of dys-
functional tissue. Genetic testing for personalized medicine has progressed
rapidly and includes single-gene testing, panel testing, genome sequencing,
and chromosomal microarrays. Perhaps the best known example is prophy-
lactic mastectomy for breast cancer, the so-called Angelina Jolie effect. The
decision to proceed with prophylactic surgery requires knowledge and skills
of the surgeon and courage on behalf of the patient.
The editors author the first three chapters that provide compelling rationale
for prophylactic surgery and emphasize the benefits to the individual patient as
well as society in general. The patient has improved chances for survival and
importantly reduced morbidity due to the opportunities to perform many of
these operative procedures with minimally invasive techniques. Timely sur-
gery also avoids chemotherapy, radiation, and immunotherapy. While there
has been remarkable improvement in survival for many malignancies, the
obligatory multimodal therapy and imaging to assess responses is costly.
Consequently, this text should be of great interest to surgeons, primary care
physicians, patients and their family members, and health-care policy makers.

,Preface

Dear Readers,
Prophylactic surgery can be defined as procedures to partially or com-
pletely remove organs or tissues that may appear normal or functional now,
but are likely to transform into significant pathologies such as malignancies
or other diseases in future.
Such transformation is multifactorial; environmental and genetic fac-
tors play an important role. Various measures can be taken to mitigate
these two etiological factors in order to prevent the development of life- or
quality of life-threatening diseases. Prophylactic surgery has started to be
applied increasingly in recent years as a preventive procedure, especially
in cases where genetic transition features are revealed. In this respect,
breast, colon, stomach, thyroid, and ovarian cancer syndromes are known
classic examples.
In this book, the conditions and organ-specific applications that require
prophylactic surgery for the elimination or prevention of pathologies that
occur primarily for genetic and environmental reasons are examined in the
light of current literature. In addition to the applications in the General
Surgery subdisciplines, chapters from related branch authors have been added
to give an idea of other surgical branch applications.
The aim of the book is to reveal the potential, limits, and applicability of
prophylactic surgery in a number of conditions and clinical situation. Some
risk-reducing procedures, applied in different disciplines in many symptom-
atic or asymptomatic cases, are also discussed.
It is understood that prophylactic surgery will become a discipline of its
own in the very near future. In this book, we believe that physicians from
every branch can find a topic of relevance to their own work.
Sixty-nine authors from 31 different institutions in 10 countries con-
tributed to the preparation of the book. We would like to thank each indi-
vidual contributor to this book for their valuable input and all authors for
sharing their vast experience through their contributions. In addition, we
would like to thank Donatella Rizza and Aruna R Sharma from the
Springer Nature team for their kind collaboration and support in realizing
this unique project.

Our hope/aim is that Prophylactic Surgery, which is the first book in its

and exciting prospective field.
