Facing Cancer, a Stark Choice - NYTimes.com
“You’re
not going to find other organs that people cut out of their bodies
because they’re worried about disease,” said the medical historian Dr.
Barron H. Lerner"
My response:
This quote by Dr Lerner, while possibly true of earlier research, is not true today. In fact, cancer patients do have prophylactic surgeries to reduce their risk of cancer/s aside from the most common BRCA carriers. This includes patients which carry mutations in the FAP and Lynch Syndromes.
