Cancer Surgery Standards Program

Surgery Protocols for Melanoma, Breast, and Colon Cancers Published Online

Three Cancer Surgery Standards Program (CSSP) cancer surgery protocols on melanoma, breast, and colon cancers are available for Kindle and print-on-demand. Each protocol provides guidance on the collection of essential data and key aspects of cancer surgery via the operative report and can serve as a useful educational tool for surgeons and surgeons in training. The standardized format, supporting explanatory comments, and detailed illustrations make the cancer surgery protocols a helpful quick reference. Protocols for thyroid, pancreatic, lung, gastric, and adrenal cancers will be published in 2023. Email CSSP@facs.org with any questions.
