Abstract:
Thoracic cancer examines the epidemiology, aetiology, and role of screening and prevention in the reduction of deaths from lung cancer, the majority caused by cigarette smoking. The pathology and genetics of lung cancer, with particular note of the driver mutations, are followed by the symptoms and signs of the disease. Appropriate investigations are described to stage the tumour. The optimum treatment for localised non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is surgical resection, followed in some cases by adjuvant chemotherapy. However, most cases present with disease too advanced for surgery, and fo

Abstract:
Breast cancer reviews the epidemiology and aetiology of this malignancy, with particular attention to the genetics underlying familial breast cancer, its pathology along with its receptors, oestrogen receptor (ER), the growth factor receptor HER2, and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and the bearing these have on treatment and prognosis. The benefits of breast cancer screening in the population and families at higher risk are discussed. Presenting symptoms and signs are followed by investigation including examination, bilateral mammography, and core biopsy of suspicious lesions. Manage

Abstract:
Breast surgery is usually the principal and primary treatment of malignant diseases of the breast. It may now sometimes follow neo-adjuvant therapies, such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy, but, for most patients with breast cancer, their disease pathway will include some form of surgery for either diagnostic evaluation, local control of the disease, prophylactic or risk-reducing reasons, or reconstructive rehabilitation. Nevertheless, this treatment modality, whilst contributing to increasing survival and other improved outcomes, is not without some physical and psychosocial morbidity. This ch

Abstract:
Breast cancer trials started in the 1930s and have made major contributions to the field of evidence-based medicine and the management of breast cancer. In the United States, the National Surgical and Adjuvant Breast Project (NSABP), established in 1957, has been responsible for many pivotal breast cancer trials in breast cancer surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and hormone therapy. The Early Breast Cancer Trialists’ Collaborative Group (EBCTCG) started in 1985, with the aim of sharing data from high-quality randomized trials worldwide to promote high-quality meta-analyses.

Abstract:
The variety of conditions that are considered to be ‘cancer’ is extremely wide, with marked variation in the management approach from disease to disease. A common feature in the management of malignant conditions, however, is the involvement of a wide range of medical professionals at different stages of the patient pathway. This commonly includes physicians, surgeons, radiologists, pathologists, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, and specialist nurses, as well as a plethora of other allied disciplines. As such, a practice that has been widely adopted is to work as a multidisciplinary

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
