Expert Commentary: Lisa Merrit, M.D. 01/07/2010
4 years ago, my mother was among the 1.3 million Americans who received a cancer diagnosis. My outgoing, immersed-in-the-arts community mom was as shocked and in disbelief as most patients are who receive the initial diagnosis.
Imagine standing in my shoes as a physician delivering the news to the woman who brought me into the world. To quell mom's fear, I was immediately calming and reassuring. Patients easily pick up on messages that express otherwise.

Breast Cancer Surgery Stressing Cosmetics Over Cures?
Recent innovations in breast cancer surgery that allow doctors to minimize postsurgical breast deformities may be stressing cosmetic outcomes to the detriment of actual rates of cure, a senior physician warned recently.
“We must ensure that surgical approaches designed to improve cosmetic outcomes do not increase local failure and the risk of subsequent death from breast cancer,” said Monica Morrow, chief of the Breast Service at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York. Her editorial was published on the British Medical Journal website. ( Read more about Breast Cancer Surgery Stressing Cosmetics Over Cures?)

10 Ways the Sun Sneakily Damages Your Skin
While getting a healthy- and sexy-looking tan may be a big temptation to many, it's actually a poor health choice, according to experts. That's because sun overexposure contributes to the majority of skin cancers in the United States. And the American Cancer Society (ACS) says skin cancers account for nearly 50 percent of all cancers in America. The ACS estimates that in 2006, the last year for which data were available, 59,940 cases of malignant melanoma and over 1 million cases of basal- and squamous-cell cancers were connected with exposure to ultraviolet rays.

Robotic Technology Allows Fast-Rebound Hysterectomies
A new robotic technique for performing hysterectomies - the full removal of a woman's ovaries and uterus - produces only a few tiny scars on a woman's abdomen and allows her to leave the hospital in only one or two days. The robosurgery also involves less pain, faster recovery (one to two weeks), quicker return to normal activities, less risk of wound infection and less blood loss. A conventional hysterectomy, on the other hand, is heavily invasive, requiring a 6- to 12-inch incision and four to six weeks of recovery. The hysterectomy is the second-most common surgical procedure in America, with some 600,000 being performed annually. ( Read more about Robotic Technology Allows Fast-Rebound Hysterectomies)
