Gastrointestinal Consequences of Cancer Treatments Study Day

Provider: The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust

An overview of the most common consequences of cancer treatments towards the gastrointestinal system and the urology system.

Patients who have had successful therapy for cancer can encounter side effects of the treatment towards different systems. We would like to provide an overview of the most common consequences of cancer treatment towards the gastrointestinal system (including immunotherapy related consequences, rectal bleeding, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth syndrome, bile acid malabsorption, pancreatic insufficiency and graft versus host disease) and towards the urology system.

The speakers will focus on theoretical background as well as practical management of the diseases – clinical scenarios will follow after the theoretical introduction. The importance of multidisciplinary approach (gastroenterologist, dietitian, haematologist, urologist, physiotherapist) will be shown.

This study day is aimed at all Allied Healthcare Professionals (Doctors, Nurses, Radiographers, Dietitians, Physiotherapists)
