Questa monografia sulla Medicina Perioperatoria vuole offrire al lettore una panoramica con un'ottica multi-disciplinare su questa tematica di medicina moderna che ha recentemente acquisito notevole importanza. Per garantire una visione a 360° della Medicina Perioperatoria hanno, infatti, contribuito specialisti appartenenti alle numerose discipline focalizzate sul paziente chirurgico: anestesisti-rianimatori, chirurghi, internisti, dietisti, geriatri, nefrologi, fisioterapisti, psicologi, infermieri. A loro abbiamo affidato la stesura dei capitoli. Ognuno secondo le proprie competenze. Ognuno di questi professionisti garantisce al paziente una componente necessaria a percorrere nel modo più efficace possibile il "viaggio" che lo condurrà ad affrontare la chirurgia più preparato, più forte, più consapevole e sempre accompagnato da un'equipe di esperti. Il "viaggio" inizia con la giusta preparazione medica, fisica, nutrizionale e psicologica. L'opera combinata di personale multi-specialistico inizia infatti con l'ottimizzazione preoperatoria, adottando per esempio un programma di Pre-abilitazione Multimodale, e si protrae nel periodo intra- e post-operatorio integrando interventi evidence-based secondo i principi degli Enhanced Recovery After Surgery programs. Speriamo che questa monografia, scritta da persone appassionate di Medicina Perioperatoria, possa aiutare il lettore a meglio comprendere l'importanza della collaborazione, dell'integrazione e dell'aggiornamento.

Laparoscopia significa garantire ai pazienti un trattamento meno aggressivo, potendo promettergli meno infezioni, meno complicazioni parietali, meno dolore post-operatorio. Ciò garantisce loro un periodo di recupero post-chirurgico più breve ma anche più confortevole. Un ritorno alla vita normale più veloce di prima.Il detto “grande incisione, grande chirurgo” non è più Vangelo.Dalle sue premesse ad oggi, la laparoscopia è diventata la via preferita dai chirurghi addestrati per molteplici indicazioni, la cui lista, non esaustiva, si allunga nel corso degli anni, grazie all’esperienza, alle idee dei chirurghi più ingegnosi e alla condivisione di questa conoscenza al servizio di altri.La chirurgia è una specialità medica che si definisce etimologicamente con la pratica della cura attraverso l’uso delle mani. Si tratta quindi di intervenire fisicamente sui tessuti, attraverso incisioni e suture.La chirurgia, come sopra definita, esiste dai tempi più antichi, poiché le tracce dei primi interventi chirurgici risalgono all’era preistorica, dove i nostri antenati già compivano trapassi, incisioni.Nel corso dei secoli e nel corso della storia, l’uomo ha sempre messo la sua mente e la sua creatività al servizio dell’innovazione. La medicina e la chirurgia ne beneficiarono ampiamente.Per passare da barbieri a medici riconosciuti, i primi chirurghi dovettero aspettare la Rivoluzione Francese. La riunificazione delle professioni mediche e chirurgiche offrì ai chirurghi il diritto di accedere all’Insegnamento ufficiale universitario e alla ricerca. Ciò rese possibile il miglioramento delle conoscenze anatomiche e fisiologiche, nonché delle regole di asepsi.Così nacque la chirurgia moderna.Nel 1944, un ginecologo francese, il Professor Raoul Palmer, ebbe l’idea geniale di introdurre un’ottica illuminata nella cavità peritoneale di una paziente, a scopo diagnostico. Da una scintilla di creatività apparve timidamente il concetto maestro della laparoscopia, che avrebbe cambiato per sempre la chirurgia addominale e digestiva, e tante altre specialità.Nel 1972, i Dottori Bruat e Manhes effettuarono il primo trattamento conservativo di una gravidanza extrauterina all’Hotel Dieu di Clermond Ferrand.Nel 1987, il Professor Philippe Mouret realizzava la prima colecistectomia mediante laparoscopia alla Clinique de la Sauvegarde di Lione.Immaginate lo sconvolgimento di un’intera comunità, che fremette all’idea di imparare e sviluppare la chirurgia di domani.Laparoscopia significa garantire ai pazienti un trattamento meno aggressivo, potendo promettergli meno infezioni, meno complicazioni parietali, meno dolore post-operatorio. Ciò garantisce loro un periodo di recupero post-chirurgico più breve ma anche più confortevole. Un ritorno alla vita normale più veloce di prima.Il detto “grande incisione, grande chirurgo” non è più Vangelo.Dalle sue premesse ad oggi, la laparoscopia è diventata la via preferita dai chirurghi addestrati per molteplici indicazioni, la cui lista, non esaustiva, si allunga nel corso degli anni, grazie all’esperienza, alle idee dei chirurghi più ingegnosi e alla condivisione di questa conoscenza al servizio di altri.Possiamo curare le patologie quotidiane come le emergenze chirurgiche, le erniazioni parietali, rimuovere la colecisti, curare il cancro anche nelle fasi avanzate, curare l’obesità. La laparoscopia diventa anche un prezioso strumento diagnostico in alcune indicazioni. Senza dimenticare i nostri numerosi colleghi di altre specialità che ormai operano anche attraverso la chirurgia videoassistita patologie toraciche, articolari, urologiche…Oggi ci sono in tutto il mondo centri esperti in chirurgia laparoscopica. Migliaia di chirurghi di tutte le età, di tutti i generi, di tutte le origini, lavorano quotidianamente per apprenderne le basi e perfezionare la propria capacità tecnica. A questi Maestri esperti si ispirano gli allievi, ed essi ne tramanderanno le conoscenze, cambiando la vita di migliaia di pazienti.A forza di volontà e di esperienza, i chirurghi di domani continueranno ad affinare gli interventi e le tecniche, rendendo la chirurgia sempre meno aggressiva, sempre più rispettosa della fisiologia dei pazienti.Attraverso questo libro vi sarà presentato un ventaglio di ciò che è la laparoscopia di oggi.Sta a voi usarla.G. Cadiere

Presentazione all'edizione italiana Non essendone l‘autore, anche se avrei voluto esserlo vista la qualità dell’opera, ma solo il revisore dell’edizione italiana, non mi diletterò in una lunga introduzione sottraendo così tempo alla vostra lettura di oltre 1400 pagine di cultura chirurgica, impreziosita da oltre 3000 tra immagini fotografiche e illustrazioni iconografiche; ma qualche parola lasciatela scrivere anche a me.La richiesta da parte dell’Editore Piccin di curare l’edizione italiana del Kantor, uno dei testi di riferimento della chirurgia dermatologica, oltre che cogliermi di sorpresa ed onorami, in un qualche modo ha consentito di portare a maturazione quella convinzione personale, ma sempre più condivisa da molti colleghi, che la dermatologia non possa più essere considerata solamente una specialità medica.In Italia la SIDCO (Società Italiana di Dermatologia chirurgica, oncologica, correttiva ed estetica) con forza e da anni, attraverso congressi e attività scientifico-divulgative, afferma, a tutto diritto, che la dermatologia chirurgica possa essere considerataiperspecializzazione della chirurgia d’organo e più nello specifico della disciplina dermatologica. Se da un lato il lavoro svolto dai miei collaboratori, in particolare dal Dr. Edoardo d’Este, è stato quello di revisionare il testo a noi sottoposto attenendosi il più possibile alla stesura originale, dall’altro alcuni dubbi interpretativi sono stati sciolti attraverso una personale esperienza ormai, purtroppo per la mia età anagrafica, trentennale. L’edizione italiana del Kantor è a nostro avviso un testo esaustivo di dermatologia chirurgica che abbraccia sia l’area terapeutica ricostruttiva che quella estetica consentendo al lettore di avere una visione completa e moderna di una disciplina che naturalmente è in continua evoluzione. Il testo ben strutturato, dopo un preciso inquadramento anatomico, dedica largo spazio alla chirurgia ricostruttiva dei lembi con particolare attenzione alla skin cancer surgical therapy ma, come detto, non limitandosi al campo patologico. Laser, neuromodulatori e filler, argomenti di sempre maggior interesse in campo dermatologico, vengono trattati nel rispetto delle indicazioni regolatorie vigenti. Nel ringraziare tutti gli altri collaboratori che a vario titolo hanno contribuito nella revisione di questa edizione italiana, auguro buona lettura a tutti voi che avete tra le mani il testo.
