Mjesto i važnost nekliniÄkih bolniÄkih centara u lijeÄenju bolesnika sa zloÄudnim bolestima u Republici Hrvatskoj
Onkologija predstavlja važan segment sveukupnoga hrvatskoga zdravstvenog sustava. Sama onkologija
jedna je od trenutaÄno najpropulzivnijih medicinskih struka te smo svakodnevno svjedoci ekspanzivnog rasta
novih modaliteta onkoloÅ”kog lijeÄenja. Ove Äinjenice nameÄu imperativ stvaranja onkoloÅ”ke mreže koja bi kao
zadatak imala standardiziranje onkoloÅ”kog lijeÄenja i osiguravanje dostupnosti novih modaliteta lijeÄenja za sve
oboljele od zloÄudnih bolesti, neovisno o njihovom mjestu boravka.Ā¹ Hrvatska veÄ ima prepoznate i definirane
regionalne onkoloÅ”ke centre u sklopu kliniÄkih bolniÄkih centara u Zagrebu, Rijeci, Osijeku i Splitu. NasreÄu, u
Hrvatskoj postoji tradicija, stara nekoliko desetljeÄa, razvoja onkoloÅ”kih centara u opÄim i županijskim bolnicama.
Poimence, to su nekliniÄki onkoloÅ”ki centri u Županijskoj bolnici Äakovec, OpÄoj bolnici Dubrovnik, OpÄoj bolnici
Karlovac, OpÄoj bolnici Koprivnica, OpÄoj bolnici Pula, OpÄoj bolnici Slavonski Brod, OpÄoj bolnici Å ibenik, OpÄoj
bolnici Varaždin i OpÄoj bolnici Zadar. Svrha ovoga istraživanja, provedenog u svim nekliniÄkim onkoloÅ”kim
centrima
Hrvatske te koriŔtenjem podataka Državnog zavoda za statistiku i Hrvatskog zavoda za zdravstveno osiguranje,
bila je uvidjeti kako je trenutno organizirana onkoloÅ”ka skrb u Republici Hrvatskoj i koja je uloga nekliniÄkih
onkoloÅ”kih centara u lijeÄenju bolesnika sa zloÄudnim bolestima u Republici Hrvatskoj
PraÄenje onkoloÅ”kih bolesnika ā kliniÄke preporuke Hrvatskog druÅ”tva za internistiÄku onkologiju HLZ-a II. dio: rak bubrega, rak mokraÄnog mjehura, rak prostate, rak testisa [Cancer patients follow-up ā Croatian society of medical oncology clinical guidelines Part II: renal cell cancer, urinary bladder cancer, prostate cancer, testicular cancer]
The treatment of oncological patients must be based upon multidisciplinary approach, and takes place in specialized oncological centers. By the end of a specific oncological treatment further follow-up is being managed mostly by the oncologists, but the role of the general practitioners becomes more important every day and therefore should be precisely defined. Nowadays, most of the existing follow-up guidelines are not based on prospective studies, but on the experts opinion of individual oncological centers or specialists. The aim of the Croatian Society of Medical Oncology (CSMO) with these recommendations is to standardize and rationalize the diagnostic procedures algorithm in the followāup of Āoncological patients after primary treatment, in patients with renal cell cancer, urinary bladder cancer, prostate cancer and testicular cancer
CANCER PATIENTS FOLLOW-UP ā CROATIAN SOCIETY OF MEDICAL ONCOLOGY CLINICAL GUIDELINES Part II: renal cell cancer, urinary bladder cancer, prostate cancer, testicular cancer
LijeÄenje onkoloÅ”kih bolesnika mora se temeljiti na multidisciplinarnom pristupu, a provodi se u specijaliziranim onkoloÅ”kim centrima. Nakon zavrÅ”etka specifiÄnog onkoloÅ”kog lijeÄenja daljnje praÄenje uglavnom provode onkolozi, ali je uloga lijeÄnika primarne zdravstvene zaÅ”tite (PZZ) sve važnija i potrebno ju je jasno definirati. TrenutaÄno se veÄina preporuka za praÄenje ne temelji na prospektivnim studijama, veÄ se zasniva na struÄnim miÅ”ljenjima pojedinih onkoloÅ”kih centara ili specijalista. Hrvatsko druÅ”tvo za internistiÄku onkologiju (HDIO) ovim preporukama želi standardizirati i racionalizirati dijagnostiÄke postupke u praÄenju onkoloÅ”kih bolesnika nakon zavrÅ”etka primarnog lijeÄenja, u bolesnika s Ārakom bubrega, rakom mokraÄnog mjehura, rakom prostate i rakom testisa.The treatment of oncological patients must be based upon multidisciplinary approach, and takes place in specialized oncological centers.

CLINICAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR DIAGNOSIS, TREATMENT AND MONITORING OF PATIENTS WITH ESOPHAGEAL AND ESOPHAGOGASTRIC JUNCTION CANCERS
Rak jednjaka i ezofagogastriÄnog prijelaza obuhvaÄa histoloÅ”ki i bioloÅ”ki razliÄite zloÄudne tumore kod kojih se napredak u razumijevanju ovih bolesti joÅ” nije pretoÄio u znatnije poboljÅ”anje preživljenja oboljelih. Dijagnoza se postavlja biopsijom uÄinjenom tijekom ezofagogastroskopije. LijeÄenje lokoregionalne bolesti najÄeÅ”Äe je multimodalno te ukljuÄuje kirurgiju, radioterapiju i kemoterapiju. UtvrÄivanje njihova optimalnog redoslijeda predmet je brojnih kliniÄkih ispitivanja i metaanaliza. Metastatska bolest lijeÄi se palijativnom kemoterapijom i suportivnom terapijom. Odluku o lijeÄenju donosi multidisciplinarni tim individualiziranim pristupom svakom bolesniku. U tekstu koji slijedi sadržane su kliniÄke upute radi standardizacije dijagnostiÄkih postupaka, lijeÄenja i praÄenja bolesnika s rakom jednjaka i ezofagogastriÄnog prijelaza u Republici Hrvatskoj.Esophageal and esophagogastric junction cancers comprise histologically and biologically different malignant tumors in which the progress in the understanding of the disease has not been followed by the improvement in the survival. Diagnosis is set by tumor biopsy during endoscopy. Multimodal approaches containing surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are frequently applied in the treatment of locoregionally advanced disease. However, the optimal sequence of the treatment options is still the issue of numerous clinical trials and meta-analyzes. Metastatic disease is treated with palliative chemotherapy and best supportive care. Treatment decisions should be individualized according to patientsā characteristics and made after multidisciplinary team discussion. The following text presents the clinical guidelines in order to standardize the diagnostic procedures, treatment and monitoring of patients with esophageal and esophagogastric junction cancers in the Republic of Croatia
Clinical guidelines for diagnostics, treatment and monitoring of patients with testicular cancer
Rak testisa najÄeÅ”Äi je solidni tumor u muÅ”karaca u dobi od 15. do 34. godine. Incidencija raka testisa u svijetu udvostruÄena je u posljednjih 40 godina. Tumori zametnih stanica Äine 95% svih tumora testisa, a podijeljeni su u dva osnovna histoloÅ”ka tipa: seminomi i neseminomi. Osobito znaÄenje daje im velik postotak izljeÄivosti i u diseminiranoj fazi bolesti. Tom je uspjehu najviÅ”e pridonijela kemoterapija, ali kirurgija je i dalje neizostavan dio uspjeÅ”nog lijeÄenja. U znatnog dijela bolesnika danas se nastoji odrediti terapijski minimum kojim se izbjegava niz nuspojava, a dovodi do jednakog uspjeha kao i donedavno agresivniji terapijski pristup. U tekstu koji slijedi iznesene su kliniÄke upute radi standardizacije dijagnostike, lijeÄenja i praÄenja bolesnika s tumorima
zametnih stanica testisa u Republici Hrvatskoj.Testicular tumors are the most common solid tumors in men between age 15- 34 years. The worldwide incidence of these tumors has doubled in the past 40 years. Germ cell tumors comprise 95% of malignant
tumors arising in the testes and they are classified as seminoma and nonseminoma. Testicular cancer has high cure rates even in disseminated stage of disease. The chemotherapy mostly contributed to these results, but surgery is an unavoidable part of this success. In significant number of these patients treatment algorithms today
have intention to offer the same cure rates with minimally aggressive therapy. The following text presents the clinical guidelines in order to standardize procedures and criteria for diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of patients with testicular cancer in the Republic of Croatia

Cancer is the second most important cause of death in our country, immediately after cardiovascular diseases. With the assumption that cancer incidence and mortality will increase in the next years, projections show that the costs of diagnosis and treatment of cancer will be significantly increased, both due to the introduction of new diagnostic techniques and innovative medicines and treatment methods. Consequently, the imperative of making optimal use of financial resources, available personnel and techniques is all the more necessary in or-der to ensure the continuity of adequate diagnosis and treatment. Optimal use of diagnostic methods can pre-vent unnecessary processing delay, waste of financial resources and unnecessary burden on healthcare work-ers, and shorten waiting lists. HDIO has made these guidelines with the aim of overcoming these problems, rationalizing and standardizing diagnostic procedures in everyday clinical practice. Guidelines should help us to select, from the entire range of diagnostic procedures available, those which are most relevant to a particular localization and clinical extension of the disease
