Cancer and its treatment represents a major predisposing condition to  a variety of infections. These adverse events are still with us, in  spite of much progress in the therapy of infectious disease, since  cancer therapy is becoming more aggressive, yet further lowering the  host's capacity to cope with infections. Moreover, the pathogens adapt  effectively to drugs, and at a pace that might outrun industry's  capability to produce new agents. Finally, new pathogens are appearing  as a consequence of both selection and severe immunosuppression. \u003cbr\u003e  Infection is so common among cancer patients that its diagnosis and  management represent a daily challenge to all oncologists, who must  continually strive to keep abreast of developments in the area. The  present comprehensive review of the most crucial and challenging  aspects of the infectious complications in cancer patients will help  them to do just that.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1996-01-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792335986\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4613-1239-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 290\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46311620280460,"sku":"9780792335986","price":296.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792335986.jpg?v=1771508199","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792335986","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
