Spontaneous regression of cancer evaluated by computerized data

Where immunologic intergrity wanes, clinicians observe a greatly increased incidence of neoplasia. Factors in this phenomenon are reviewed. With complete and detailed recorded data on patients who have exhibited spontaneous regression of cancer, a systematic data-reduction approach becomes a practical reality, without the inherent handicaps of missing details in patient histories or anecdotal and often conjectural observations. Presented here is the plea for detailed recording of complete histories of all carcinoma patients who exhibit the phenomenon of spontaneous regression. Physicans of several decades ago generally considered as unrelated much data deemed important to us today.
