ABSTRACT
Surgery remains the mainstay treatment in the majority of solid cancers. Anesthetics and analgesics used during the perioperative period may modulate the innate and adaptive immune system, inflammation and angiogenesis, and have a direct effect on cancer cells that could ultimately modify oncological outcomes. For instance, volatile anesthetics and opioid analgesics have shown predominantly pro-tumor effects, while propofol, non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs have mostly anticancer effects. Researchers have been especially interested in investigating the association between the use of regional anesthesia techniques and the postoperative survival of patients with cancers. Since the results of the current retrospective studies are conflicting, several researchers are conducting prospective randomized trials (AU)
RESUMEN
Las intervenciones quirúrgicas siguen siendo el tratamiento de elección de muchos tumores solidos. Los anestésicos y analgésicos usados en la actualidad tienen efectos en el sistema inmunológico, inflamatorio y angiogénico de los pacientes así como también en células malignas. Los anestésicos inalatorios y los opiáceos tiene un efecto predominantemente protumoral mientras que los agentes anti-inflamatorios no esteroideos y propofol parecen tener acciones antitumorales. Es por esto que diferentes grupos de investigadores han tratado de estudiar la posible asociación entre el uso de anestésicos y analgésicos con la supervivencia postoperatoria de pacientes oncológicos. Desafortunadamente, los resultados son controvertidos por lo que estudios prospectivos aleatorios controlados se están llevando acabo en diferentes centros (AU)
