Pulmonologist Claudio Micheletto positively commented on the news of the lung nodule of Pope Leo XIV, emphasizing that if the nodule is localized and operable, the intervention could be decisive, even though lung tumors are often diagnosed at an advanced stage. #TumorePolmonare #Chirurgia #PapaLeoneXIV (translated)

Let's talk about vulnerable subjects – continues Grossi, who signed the note along with lawyers Vita Maria Ippolito, Riccardo Marceca, Vito Livadia, and Salvatore Accardo – entrusted to a healthcare system that turned out to literally be a hell on earth. An nightmare occurred for 3,000 people: some woke up and had nothing, some did not wake up because they died, and about 300 people had a tumor that no one diagnosed in time. A year of silence that led the lawyers of the patients' families to write a very harsh note: “Let's talk about vulnerable subjects – continues Grossi, who signed the note along with lawyers Vita Maria Ippolito, Riccardo Marceca, Vito Livadia, and Salvatore Accardo – entrusted to a healthcare system that turned out to literally be a hell on earth. An nightmare occurred for 3,000 people: some woke up and had nothing, some did not wake up because they died, and about 300 people had a tumor that no one diagnosed in time.” #Giustizia #SanitàPubblica #Trapani (translated)

Patrizia Lavatori sarcastically commented on a phrase attributed to Baldi: according to her account, even if a second examination did not reveal a tumor, Baldi would have claimed that the person was still affected by it. Lavatori added that Baldi had appeared on television and associated the post with Garlasco. #ignotox #Garlasco #tumore #salute #medicina (translated)

Marjolein Faber wrote that her horse Thirza had come to her eight months earlier neglected, with clipped mane, a thin tail, a skinny body, a skin tumor, and a dull coat. According to Faber, Thirza was open to a new friendship despite everything. The tumor had been removed, and the horse was, according to her, becoming stronger, more beautiful, and happier. #dierendag https://t.co/bklJovsdDP #paard #dierenliefde #herstel (translated)

Let's get to the facts, then, but to the real ones and not those from an attachment from the chamber, which I haven’t seen and which is likely outdated. TUMO Lisbon opened two years ago with a thousand students. In the second year it increased to fifteen hundred, and it continues with fifteen hundred, the same as TUMO Coimbra, TUMO Porto, and TUMO Bilbao -- all operated by us. The 700 that the councilor mentions were the prudent hypothesis of a proposal document from three years ago, when the Chamber was supposed to have entered as a founding member of the project. The students are in Beato, we can count them, and they are double what you say. The cost per student thus comes out contrary: 250,000 euros (per year) divided by fifteen hundred adolescents equals 167 euros per student per year, for four hours a week of technology, design, and programming, outside school hours, for free. Public school costs the State more than seven thousand euros per student per year, and I have never heard you say that you find it expensive -- a value that does not include rent, which we pay, and in which the municipalities take care of the management and payment of non-teaching staff, operational assistants, and technical assistants, as well as the maintenance of the buildings, meals, school transportation, and school social action. The 'initial phase' you mention in which the support would be 'more than double' did not exist: TUMO Lisbon operated for two full years without a cent from the chamber, with 100% private funding, while CML fulfilled, with two years of delay, the support it had promised at the opening. As for the idea that supporting TUMO is an eccentricity of Lisbon: in Coimbra, Porto, Matosinhos, and Gaia, the chambers also support; in Bilbao, the Diputación Foral de Bizkaia and the Ayuntamiento; in Paris, TUMO is fully funded by the chamber, and the same in Buenos Aires, Tirana, Los Angeles, and Gunma, Japan; in Germany, the six centers are funded by the public development bank, the federal government, and the municipalities. Lisbon is not the exception that supports. It was the exception that did not support. I renew the invitation: come see the fifteen hundred. Send me a private message and we'll agree on a day. It's faster than reading attachments and more useful than throwing comments on X. Moreover, coming to know the projects supported by the Chamber is your duty as a councilor. #Educação #Lisboa #TUMO (translated)

Angelica Pasculli, suffering from pancreatic cancer and searching for an American super-drug that cannot be found in Europe, is making a desperate appeal to receive the prohibitively expensive therapy and hopes to get help to live longer with her son. #Tumore #FarmaciInnovativi #AssistenzaSanitaria (translated)

Thanks to this collective effort, the outlook for many metastatic cancers is shifting towards long-term chronicity or, in an increasing number of cases, towards complete remission. It's not about if this will happen, but about when. End. #Salute #Tumori #RicercaMedica #IT (translated)

I deeply appreciated the courage and humanity with which @ale_dibattista chose to publicly share his brain cancer diagnosis. Talking about such a difficult illness on television, without filters and without hiding, means putting aside one’s public image and showing oneself as one is: a person facing an important trial in their life. I also appreciated the choice to set aside, at least for this moment, his political ambitions to focus on treatment and his health. It is a choice I consider deeply human and dignified. Medicine also needs people like this: people who have the courage to show their faces, to talk about illness without taboos and to face treatment with dignity and without fear. Telling one’s story can help those living the same experience feel less alone. I have not always agreed with some of his political positions. But today that takes a back seat. Today I stand by his side and want to be one of his first supporters in this battle against the disease. I wish Alessandro all my heart strength, courage, and serenity in the journey ahead of him. Modern medicine also needs people like him, able to transform a personal affair into a message of humanity and courage. Thank you, Alessandro. #Tumore #Coraggio #Umanità (translated)

In Italy, each year there are about 6,000 new diagnoses of brain cancer, a type of neoplasm for which there are currently no screening programs, making it essential to pay attention to the signs and symptoms that may indicate the disease. #TumoreAlCervello #Salute #DiagnosiPrecoce (translated)
