Malignant neoplasms are one of the main causes of death and disability in the population of developed, and in recent years, developing countries. A significant loss of working capacity of a part of the population associated with this morbidity takes it beyond the scope of a purely medical problem. The annual steady increase in the absolute number of patients with a diagnosis of a malignant neoplasm established for the first time in their life is due to an improvement in diagnosis and registration, an increase in the number of older people, and a true increase in the incidence of a number of nosological groups.
