Features: The incidence of malignant tumors has been increasing year by year, and in some major cities in China, it has already ranked as the leading cause of death, becoming a common disease that threatens human health. Many provinces, cities, and counties in China have successively established specialized oncology hospitals, and many general hospitals have also established oncology departments, providing favorable conditions for tumor prevention and treatment in China. Currently, comprehensive treatment has become the main direction of progress in tumor treatment, but the development of comprehensive treatment in China is still unbalanced. Although tumor internal medicine treatment has been widely used in various departments, it still needs further standardization. Especially in recent years, the development of tumor treatment has been very rapid, and knowledge and concepts need to be continuously updated to adapt to this development trend. The authors of this book have been engaged in clinical work in tumor internal medicine for many years and have accumulated rich experience. They have compiled this book based on domestic and international materials, hoping that its publication can play a guiding role in the standardized treatment of tumor internal medicine in China and promote the improvement of tumor treatment levels. It is hoped that more colleagues can actively engage in tumor prevention and treatment work and make more contributions to conquering cancer. This book is compiled by professors, associate professors, and others with many years of clinical experience. It comprehensively and systematically elaborates on the current state of tumor internal medicine and is written based on the authors' own experience. Compared to the first edition, this edition has added many new anti-cancer drugs, new domestic and international treatment experiences of anti-cancer drugs, new progress and new data in various tumor internal medicine treatments. The content is rich, highlighting practicality and clinical practice, playing an important role in guiding clinical medication implementation and advocating standardized medication use. This is one of the characteristics of this book. In this way, it can not only help doctors master the principles of treatment for various tumors during clinical practice but also guide doctors in specific medication use, and enable patients to receive the best treatment results. The book is divided into three parts: General Principles, Drugs, and Tumor Internal Medicine Treatment, with 67 chapters, providing detailed introductions to 107 anti-cancer drugs, dozens of auxiliary drugs related to tumor internal medicine treatment, and the treatment principles and internal medicine treatment methods for 37 types of tumors. This book can be used as a reference for oncology doctors and clinical doctors of various departments, pharmacists, and tumor prevention and treatment workers in their study and work.
