Abstract:
Cancer pain syndromes are defined by the association of particular pain characteristics and physical signs with specific consequences of the underlying disease or its treatment. The recognition of cancer pain syndromes and the ability to distinguish between them is a critical skill for palliative care clinicians since syndromes are associated with distinct aetiologies and pathophysiologies, and they often have important prognostic and therapeutic implications. Pain syndromes associated with cancer can be either acute or chronic. Whereas acute pains experienced by cancer patients are usually related to diagnostic and therapeutic interventions, chronic pains are most commonly caused by direct tumour infiltration. Adverse consequences of cancer therapy, including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, account for 15-25% of chronic cancer pain problems, and a small proportion of the chronic pains experienced by cancer patients are caused by pathology unrelated to either the cancer or the cancer therapy.

Abstract:
In the United States, there are 48,000 new cases of head and neck cancer (HNC) annually. Although HNC used to be associated mainly with smoking and drinking, it is now found in many nonsmokers and nondrinkers in their 50s due to the spread of HPV. Pain is typically present at the time of diagnosis. Treatment usually includes radiation, chemotherapy, and/or surgery, which address the mass effect and pain. Yet, patients continue to experience pain during and after treatment, because the treatment modalities can cause significant inflammation and neuropathy and can lead to central sensitization. Painful mucositis is a complication of chemotherapy and radiation treatment; it can become severe, impacting patients’ ability to speak and eat, and sometimes limiting treatment. Pain treatment for HNC is multimodal, and includes preemptive approaches to prevent neuropathy and central sensitization with antiepileptics, such as gabapentin and pregabalin. Mucositis pain is treated using a stepwise protocol.

Abstract:
Back pain is prevalent in adults, and most often its cause is nonspecific and benign. Imaging and interventions are not always helpful and they are generally expensive and low yield. However, in about 10% or fewer cases, a specific etiology is found. A patient history, physical examination, and testing are the methods for finding the cause. Back pain from malignancy must also be considered. Prolonged survival from better chemotherapy has increased the incidence of metastases to bone, especially the spine. Common sources of spinal metastases are cancers of the prostate, kidneys, thyroid, breast, and lungs. The primary treatment is to address the malignancy. Pain from spinal tumors can be treated with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, radiofrequency, or vertebral augmentation therapy. The chapter reviews the epidemiology of spinal cancer pain, evaluation of malignant spinal pain, and what the interventional pain physician can offer patients to alleviate their pain.

Abstract:
Neuropathic pain is a common complication to cancer, cancer treatment, HIV, and other conditions that may affect the somatosensory nervous system. Neuropathic pain may be present in up to 40% of cancer patients and may persist independently of the cancer and affect the quality of life in disease-free cancer survivors. Particular surgical treatment and chemotherapy may cause chronic persistent neuropathic pain in cancer survivors. The diagnosis of neuropathic pain can be challenging and requires documentation of a nervous system lesion and pain in areas of sensory changes. The pharmacological treatment may include tricyclic antidepressants, selective serotonin noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors (duloxetine or venlafaxine), calcium channel α2↓ agonists (gabapentin or pregabalin), and opioids. Topical lidocaine and capsaicin, NMDA antagonists, carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine, and cannabinoids may be indicated. Due to limited efficacy or intolerable side effects at maximal doses, combination therapy is often required and careful monitoring of effect and adverse reactions is important.

Abstract:
Metastatic spread of cancer to bone is frequent and causes pain, disability, and functional limitation. New understanding of the homing method of cancer cells to bone and the mechanism of cancer production of pain raise possible new treatment strategies. Non-surgical treatments such as chemotherapy and hormone therapy are effective in early disease. Bisphosphonates and inhibition of osteoprotegerin prevent progression of bone lesions and avoid pain, radiation, and surgery. Radiotherapy arrests disease and relieves pain in many cases. Surgery is needed when the bone is weak or fractured. It effectively relieves pain and preserves function. It usually requires replacing or bypassing the deficient bone with site-specific reconstructive surgery. Surgery should be selected based on projections of patient survival. New tools to make these projections have been validated and are now available. New targeted drug therapies appear to be changing metastatic bone disease into a more chronic condition. This will alter the management of local disease in many histological subtypes of metastatic cancers.

Abstract:
Treatment in cancer is aimed at improving survival (curing where possible) and/or improving symptoms. Symptoms may be caused by the cancer itself (primary tumour, metastases, or paraneoplastic phenomenon) or by the treatments patients undergo to treat the cancer (surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and biological therapy). Therefore, symptom control is one of the key roles of oncologists as they treat cancer patients. The most important part of symptom control in cancer patients is to elucidate the underlying cause of the symptom. Symptom control is most effective when the underlying cause is targeted; for example, shoulder pain may be treated most effectively by local radiotherapy if it is due to a bone metastasis in the humeral head, by dexamethasone if it is referred pain due to diaphragmatic irritation from hepatomegaly, and by amitriptyline or gabapentin if it is neuropathic pain due to cervical nerve root irritation. Covering all symptom control in cancer patients is beyond the remit of this chapter; however, it will cover the control of pain and nausea and vomiting, as these are very common symptoms in cancer patients.

Abstract:
Anesthesia for pediatric orthopedic and spinal surgery presents multiple challenges for the anesthesiologist. Children often present with comorbidities and concomitant diseases that affect the respiratory and cardiovascular functions. Significant blood loss and prolonged operating times can pose significant risks. Airway management in a child with a syndrome can be both difficult and challenging. Orthopedic tumor surgery may be complicated by chemotherapy treatment, anesthetics can be affected by drug interactions, and postoperative pain management can be complex. In this chapter, we review common coexisting diseases in pediatric patients undergoing orthopedic surgeries. These diseases include syndromes such as Down syndrome, Marfan syndrome, and Klippel-Feil syndrome; muscular dystrophies such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy; and bony cancers such as osteosarcoma.
