‘Ageing’ cancer
Chemotherapy should also be an option of treatment for the elderly if they are in a good state of health.
WHAT is the definition of “elderly”? It all depends on how old you are. With each passing year, my definition of “elderly” goes up.
At the rate I am going, the world will be chock-full of young saplings 20 years from now!
Age is the most important risk factor for cancer, ceteris paribus. The older you get, the more likely you are to be diagnosed with cancer, other things being equal.
Most cases of cancer occur in people who are in their menopause or andropause or long after.
