The population of cancer patients and the procedures they undergo have been increasing over the years. Knowing how cancer affects patients is important for perioperative anesthetic management. This chapter will describe the importance of the preoperative evaluation of cancer patients and their perioperative implications. Besides their primary cancers, these patients often have comorbidities, treatment regimens, and side effects that can affect the anesthetic plan. This chapter will explore the different organ systems affected by cancer and the perioperative considerations for the anesthesia provider.
