Abstract:
Multiple technical and strategical improvements have modified surgical management of breast cancer. Screening mamographies are able to focus small tumors in which excision eventually after percutaneous biopsy can necessitate two surgical procedures. Reduction of axillary dissection in these small lesions can benefit from sentinel node biopsy technique. Immediate or delayed breast reconstruction reduces the mutilation of the mastectomies with their psycho-social disaster. Technically these reconstruction requires a multidisciplinary approach and psychological support. These surgical evolutions in parallel with other therapies for breast cancer developed with two major points: necessity of a good local control for cure, multidisciplinary approach which makes surgeons reals oncologists.

Cancers Originate from Somatic Mutations in a Single Cell
Tumor Progression
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...
Cancer Therapies
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
