There is no good news about smoking, but since about 10 percent of our patients are smokers, this research provides us with some relief. The question that remains is will smoking affect their survival?
Duh! As if the not aggressive cancers is the less evil. Cancer is cancer is cancer.
And smoking is really bad cancer-wise and other wise. This isn't an excuse to smoke.
