Cancer is the common name for more than 200 types of tumor diseases that differ from each other in their properties, effects, consequences and curability. Tumors arise from the proliferation of cells that have escaped the control and supervision of the body. A healthy cell only divides when necessary, but once the necessary cell replacement has taken place, division stops. However, the division of cancer cells does not stop, but repeats itself over and over again. Over time, cells that have become malignant and proliferate can spread to surrounding organs, enter the lymphatic system or the bloodstream, through which they can spread to different parts of the body.
In addition to inherited factors, carcinogens entering the body play a decisive role in the development of cancer, which can cause genetic distortion by destroying cells. Of course, the body's immune system is able to treat and repair this for a while, and it destroys the cells that have changed in the wrong direction. In addition to inherited tendencies, carcinogens such as smoking, air pollution from cars and factories, excessive radiation play a role in the destruction of cells, but unhealthy diet, alcoholism or harmful effects at work can also be classified here. The cancer mortality data in Hungary have been dramatic for many years: currently around 300,000 people suffer from cancer, and 32-33,000 people die as a result of it every year. Cancer is the second most common cause of death for Hungarians, behind cardiovascular diseases, and is a real public health problem.
While we know about it, we are terrified and shaken if it strikes near us, but according to those who professionally deal with our health screening and treatment, we still take the risk lightly. Others say that if all people at risk in this way wanted to use the necessary screenings, tests, and treatments recommended in the initial stages of the disease, the domestic health care system would suddenly collapse.
On the other hand, under the huge cloud of panic, the illusions related to "cure-all" cancer therapies, which the click-baiting media feeds daily with "the final solution has been born" and "we already have the key to the cure for cancer" nature, often completely unscientific sensations, live and flourish .
In this frightening noise, we found an authentic and sane specialist in the person of pathologist-professor József Tímár. Sándor Friderikusz tried to clarify all important issues related to cancer with him.
