Abstract: In industrial countries breast cancer is the second frequent malignancyof women. The often metastasizing (65 to 70%) and long-lasting illnessleads patients in more than 50% to paramedical treatments. An analysisof the unproven methods and the remedies concerning the effectivenessagainst breast cancer is done: mistletoe preparations, nutritiondirections, organotherapy (cell therapy, cytoplasmatic and thymustherapy), enzyme-preparations and further paramedical remedies andmethods. In the last part, the discussion covers the findings of the'Gesellschaft fur Biologische Krebsabwehr', which presumes thatbiological remedies will lead to a turn in cancer treatment. An exactanalysis of the paramedical literature shows that the quoted successesof paramedical treatment are nearly parallel to the successes of'ortho-medical' therapies, which are not mentioned at all or only onincidentally.
