Early detection, more efficient surgery and more precise treatment have enabled this progress”

Whereas a few years ago the survival of metastatic patients was around six months, it has now extended to at least 24 months, as a result of the fact that in recent years there have been many important advances in early detection, diagnosis and treatment procedures, so that at the same time, we are faced with increasing complexity in the management of these tumors.

The continuous improvement and sophistication of imaging methods, the refinement of some surgical techniques, the increased hierarchization of certain pathological findings, the inclusion of molecular biology in clinical practice, the incorporation of personalized medicine, changes in many classical therapeutic approaches, technological advances for the administration of radiotherapy, the incorporation of immunotherapy and new combined modalities, new complications and sequelae of new treatments, are some of the factors that make the care of patients with digestive tumors an increasingly complex activity.
