The surgeon's future role in the conquest of cancer
Abstract:
This article is a brief review alluding to the multidisciplinary modalities including basic science technologies that are available in the treatment of today's cancer victim. The roles are discussed of the general surgeon and of the surgical fellow, later a surgical oncologist, as they merge into their respective positions to practice their art. The necessity of limiting the number of surgical oncologists with helpful hints on how they can survive in a nonacademic atmosphere are presented. The multidisciplinary approach to treatment of cancer is stressed.

Cancer-Critical Genes II: Tumor Suppressor Genes
When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.
