摘      要：＂CANCER＂ is a disease state that leads to progressive illness that is uniformly fatal without treatment. Hippocrates invoked the Greek word karkinos, or ＂crab＂ to describe tumors he observed. For centuries, ＂CANCER＂ remained a disease that was recognized primarily in its locally advanced or metastatic stage, when it was almost uniformly fatal.
