Abstract: The causes, with considerably influence the advancement of cancer process have been investigated in patients with lymphatic system tumours admitted to the Department of Chemotherapy at the Center of Oncology in Cracow. It has been revealed, that the delay in the treatment was mainly due to false first diagnosis as well as the negligence of the symptoms by the patients themselves and also to consulting medically unrecognized "healers" before undertaking proper, specialized treatment. It has been observed, that more than every fourth patient took advice of "non-doctors", i.e. bioenergy-therapists, incompetent healers, herbalists and so forth. These factors by influencing further delay in the treatment, diminish its chances.
