The "Europe against Cancer" programme has, from its inception,
emphasised the key role which general practitioners must play in
the actions necessary to achieve its aim of reduc ing the incidence
and the mortality from cancer in the European Community. General
practitioners, because of their day-to-day direct and continuing
contact with patients, playa role not only in primary prevention
and education of patients, but also in motivating their patients to
accept secondary prevention and screening, some of it carried out
by general practitioners themselves. These preventive activities
are in addition to their traditional role in the care and
management of patients with cancer at home, and increas ingly,
their role in active treatment. In view of the importance of the
general practitioner in the "Europe against Cancer" pro gramme, the
European Commission, with a view to providing general practitioners
with up-tO-date useful information, has sponsored the production of
this series of publications on organ based cancers, especially
written for general practitioners. MICHEL RICHONNIER Coordinator of
the" Europe against Cancer" programme, Commission ofthe European
Communities, Brussels Preface The present textbook is the second in
the series published by the Commission of the Euro pean Communities
within the context of the "Europe Against Cancer" Programme. After
lung cancer, it was felt that priority should be given to breast
cancer, the most frequent neoplastic disease among European women.
