Samenvatting
For older oncology patients, standard treatment is not always the best, which was something surgeon Barbara van Leeuwen noticed when a patient died after rectal surgery in the nursing home. Her experience was one of the factors that led to the introduction of a specific MDT for the older patient with a solid tumor. This is an innovative procedure that in 27% of the cases leads to a treatment proposal that deviates from standard practice or the advice of the tumor board-but it also leads to satisfied patients.
