#Tumoren lassen sich aufgrund ihrer Merkmale in 3 Klassen einteilen: gutartig, halbbösartig oder bösartig.*     Gutartige Tumoren verdrängen umliegendes Gewebe, bleiben jedoch lokal. Sie können Probleme bereiten, wenn sie auf umliegendes Gewebe drücken. Dann müssen sie meistens operativ entfernt werden.**     Halbbösartige Tumoren wachsen in umliegendes Gewebe ein, bilden aber keine Absiedlungen.*    Bösartige Tumoren wachsen zerstörend in umliegendes Gewebe ein und versorgen sich über die umliegenden Blut- und Lymphgefäße. Es können Metastasen entstehen. Sie werden als „Krebs“ bezeichnet.*    Bei Astellas setzen wir uns in der #Onkologie dafür ein, gezielte Therapien für Betroffene mit einer Krebsdiagnose zu entwickeln. Unser Ziel ist es, den Patient:innen Lebenszeit und -qualität zu schenken.    #ChangingTomorrow *Krebsinformationsdienst, Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum: Was ist Krebs?   **Bayerische Krebsgesellschaft e.V.: Welche Tumoren gibt es?

El pasado mes de junio hemos estado de celebración: se cumplieron 5 años desde la creación de nuestra división de Patient Centricity, como una función independiente, consolidando nuestro compromiso por ser una compañía verdaderamente centrada en el paciente. Para Astellas, los pacientes están en el centro de todo lo que hacemos, es decir, son nuestra razón de ser. Tanto es así, que nuestro lema es justo ese: PATIENTS ARE WHY.   Pero este compromiso no son solo palabras, sino que se traduce a hechos. Trabajamos incansablemente junto a entidades como Ader Asociación , AEAL, Asociación Española de Afectados por Linfoma, Mieloma y Leucemia, la Alianza General de Pacientes (AGP), Federación Nacional de Asociaciones ALCER, ANCAP. Asociación de Cáncer de Próstata,ASIA - Asociación para la Incontinencia anal, Federación ASEM -Federación Española de Enfermedades Neuromusculares, EUPATI España, Foro Español de Pacientes, FNETH, GEPAC - GRUPO ESPAÑOL DE PACIENTES CON CANCER, Asociación Mácula Retina, Pequeños Superhéroes Asociación, la Asociación Española de Enfermos de Pompe y Plataforma de Organizaciones de Pacientes. A todos vosotros, muchas gracias por dejarnos ser parte de vuestro día a día.   Y, aunque nuestro Mes del Paciente haya finalizado, nuestra acción continúa. Por eso os dejamos con este vídeo en el que hemos preguntado a las asociaciones con las que trabajamos qué les inspira en su trabajo diario.    #AstellasEspaña #PatientCentricity #PATIENTSAREWHY Gaceta Médica
