The Czech organised breast cancer screening programme was initiated in 2002. Collection of data on screening mammography examinations, subsequent diagnostic procedures, and final dia-gnosis is an indispensable part of the programme. Data collection is obligatory for all accredited centres, in accordance with regulations issued by the Czech Ministry of Health.

Material And Methods: Monitoring of the programme is based on data from the Czech National Cancer Registry (CNCR), Breast Cancer Screening Registry, and the Czech National Reference Centre (CNRC).
Article Synopsis
- The Czech Breast Cancer Screening Programme (CBCSP), started in 2002, has seen quality improvements over time, aiming to enhance early detection of breast cancer.
- The program uses a comprehensive information system to track screening data and monitor performance against European Guidelines.
- Despite increasing breast cancer incidence, early-stage detections have risen, and mortality rates have stabilized, indicating progress in screening effectiveness while suggesting the need for improved participation rates.
Objective: Surgically solved lung involvement in patients after surgery of colorectal cancer.
Materials And Methods: Altogether 15 patients, 9 men (median age in the time of lung diagnosis 67 years) and 6 women (median age 59 years) underwent classical open pulmonary surgery during 2003-2008 years from the follow-up cohort of 836 persons after operation due to colorectal cancer in the time period of 1996-2008 years. The indication for lung surgery: solitary pulmonary lesion.
Background: An analysis of outcome data of pulmonary segmentectomy focused on local efficacy in primary non small cell lung cancer and true or seeming lung metastasis.
Patients And Methods: Miscellaneous series of twenty patients treated with classical open procedure involving individuals with primary or metachronous non small cell lung cancer, solitary pulmonary metastasis of extrapulmonary cancer and/or benign pulmonary lesions, lung metastasis mimicing. Thirteen patients after segmentectomy because of malignancy are separated into a group of 7 cases with NSCLC up to 20 mm in diameter, and a group of 6 persons with solitary pulmonary opacity up to 38 mm treated previously surgically for extrapulmonary cancer.
