View Original Source →Abstract
The human organism possesses powers of defense that enable it to resist in greater or less degree the development of malignant tumors. These powers of defense are expressed under some conditions in the complete regression of microscopically demonstrable cancer. The existence of signs of regression in biopsy specimens is to be regarded as improving the prognosis in cases where complete surgical extirpation is impracticable.
