HERRERA SUAREZ, Anairis; PARIS GOMEZ, David; CAMACHO SOSA, Kirenia  y  GARCIA HERNANDEZ, Mildrey. Notes on History of Oncology in Cuba. Rev.Med.Electrón. [online]. 2020, vol.42, n.6, pp.2691-2701.  Epub 31-Dic-2020. ISSN 1684-1824.

There are many relevant results of Cuban Oncology, thanks to our doctors, scientists and academics who have always been at the forefront of the fight against cancer, not only in Cuba but also in Latin America for more than 170 years. The Cuban people, with their human spirit and collaborator, made contributions that helped in difficult times, where governments tried to limit the budget for a work as noble as the fight against cancer. It was the health policy adopted by the revolutionary government, which allowed access to free care for all oncological patients, putting at their disposal the available resources in their fight against this dark disease. The creation of the Oncological Unit of Matanzas has been and is today a sample of such a noble work. With the aim of exposing the characteristics of the emergence and development of oncology in Cuba, the present work is carried out.

Palabras clave : Oncology; emergence and development.
