EARLY DIAGNOSIS
IS
THE
KEY TO CURATIVE CANCER
SURGERY
Most cancers are discov-
ered
too
late
for
curative
surgery.
Early diagnosis
de-
pends
on
regular check ups; at
the very least, prompt diagno-
sis
upon
first
symptom
appearance.
With
modern
technology,
60%
of
cancers can
be
diagnosed
early
enough.
Liver
cancers
are silent
cancers
until very advanced
-
only
5%
of
liver cancers are
operable
upon diagnosis. Lung cancer
is
the
number
1
killer, yet,
only
20o/o
are
operable
at
diagnosis.
Although typical symptoms are
dry cough
or
coughing
up
blood;
the patient could well
be
asymp-
tomatic or, the
patient
could
even present
with
symptoms
due
to
secondary spread,
e.9.,
to
the
brain and masquerading
as a stroke.
Although
our colo-
rectalcancers
are less
common
than the West, it is already
on
the
rise.
They may present
as
anemia or fever rather than the
typically
blood in stool
or
"pen-
cil stool"
sign.
As the breast
is
outside
the body,
breast can-
cers
should
be
readily
discovered. However, palpable
breast
lumps may
already
rep-
resent
breast
cancers that have
already spread.
Early
diagnosis
is
the
key.
