摘要:

Based on the numbers of new cancers diagnosed, deaths from cancer and person‐years of life lost as a result of death from cancer, non‐melanocytic skin cancer, lung cancer, cancers of the colon and rectum, breast cancer, cancer of the prostate, melanoma, cancer of the stomach, cancer of the bladder, cancer of the pancreas, and non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma were judged to be the most important cancers in Australia in 1982. Of these, only cancer of the pancreas appeared to be decreasing in frequency, and then only since 1979. while cancers of the lung and malignant melanoma of the skin were increasing rapidly. By the tum of the century the number of new cases of cancer diagnosed in Australia each year will be at least 50% higher than it was in 1982, mainly as a result of population growth and ageing.Given what is presently known about the causes of cancer it may be estimated that about one‐third of cancers occurring in Australia could be prevented through feasible programmes. More than half of this change would be achieved through the elimination of tobacco smoking. A further 13% of cancer deaths, and some non‐fatal cases, could be prevented by the effective implementation of cancer screening programmes of established efficacy. Even after this, however, many of the currently important cancers would remain significant. They are. therefore, priority subjects for research in cance

摘要:

The management of the clinically uninvolved (No) neck in patients with cancers of the oral tongue, or floor of the mouth, including the gum, and treated by intra‐oral resection remains contentious. The high incidence of metastasis to the neck found in patients selected for composite resection of turnours of these sites (30–59%) might suggest that elective treatment of the neck, either by neck dissection or irradiation, should be performed in all patients. To the contrary, it is shown that the incidence of late metastasis from T1turnours, treated by intra‐oral resection alone, is low (<20%), and although the incidence of late neck metastasis from T2tumours which have been similarly treated, is 42.7%, death from uncontrolled disease in the neck, with the primary controlled, occurs in only 4%. Intra‐oral resection of superficial T1cancers without elective treatment of the neck appears justified, but the management of the N0neck in patients with T2tumours remains contro
