A report is given of the anti-cancer activity of the chest department of the XIV. District of Budapest. From 1962 to 1977 932 cancer cases were admitted; 315 of whom could be operated, the rate of resection being 33.8%. Among persons under the age of 70 this figure has been 43.7%. No selection being practised on admission this material deserves special interest. It also seemed suitable to give an answer to the question whether mass X-ray surveys had any effect on the 5 years survival rate of the patient.
