Description

Although described as early as the 5th century BC, for more than two millennia tumours were generally referred to by vague and imprecise terminology that was confusing and prevented them from being properly characterised. It was not until the 18th century that interest in neoplastic diseases began to intensify, making contributions that furthered the development of knowledge in the 19th century. Progress was made in every area of oncology: at the conceptual level with a more scientifically correct approach; at the morphological level with a better macroscopic and microscopic characterisation of tumours; at the classificatory level with a clear separation between carcinomas and sarcomas and with the identification of several nosologically distinct histotypes; at the aetiological level with the discovery of carcinogenic factors and their mechanism of action; at the biological level with the definition of the nature of cancer and the mechanisms underlying its local and distant spread; at the therapeutic level with the considerable progress of surgery which, thanks to the discovery of general anaesthesia and antisepsis, was able to develop radical operations, finally offering patients the real hope of being able to eradicate a disease that for many centuries had disarmed physicians, believing it to be incurable. Initially, medical therapy was unable to make a significant contribution, but at the end of the 19th century the discovery of X\-rays and radium provided another effective treatment modality: radiotherapy. In the sixth volume of Medicine and Oncology, the development of scientific oncology is presented with elegant illustrations, in the usual simple and flowing style, to all those who want to know as the age\-old dream of curing cancer was turned into a real possibility. Massimo Lopez was Director of the Division of Medical Oncology of the “Regina Elena” Institute for Cancer Research in Rome and Professor of Oncology at the 1st School of Specialisation in Oncology at “Sapienza” University, Rome. He has published over 200 articles in the most important scientific journals in Italy and abroad and written several books, including a monograph on breast cancer, one on GIST, and the manual of practical medical oncology that bears his name.
