Petrov's idea in oncology consists in the possibility of scientific organization of anticancer struggle, based in particular, on the development of the sanitary-hygienic aspects of tumor prophylaxis. N.N. Petrov's remarks on necessity of pregnancy hygiene, made by him 50 years ago, are confirmed now in experiments and sometimes in human research. The basal regulations of transplacental carcinogenesis -- one of the modern trends in experimental oncology -- are stated. Some considerations on possible applications of the results of animal experiments of human cancer prophylaxis are expressed.
