title: [Postoperative care of cancer patients: an interdisciplinary responsibility (author's transl)].

The necessary centralization in hosptal is ensured through cooperation on the part of the general practitioners. By means of a standardized follow-up programme, the organizational model described guarantees 9 postoperative check-ups at predetermined intervals within a period of 5 years. Clinical cancer registers are a mark of quality for hospitals and ensure detection and analysis of the pathography of cancer patients. Surgeons must also acquire the knowledge necessary for their use.
