The aim of this chapter is to explore the effects of perioperative anesthetic choices on cancer biology and recurrence. By looking at current research, this chapter compares how different anesthetic agents can affect immune function, inflammatory processes, and tumor progression. This chapter compares the effects of intravenous and volatile anesthetics, as well as the effects of commonly used analgesics. The goal of this chapter is to equip clinicians with basic knowledge on these effects to guide the creation of tailored anesthetic strategies in this relatively large patient population. This chapter also emphasizes the need for further research on these effects due to the relative lack of randomized controlled trials.
