Remission with No Outside Treatment

Although unusual, there has been a case reported of spontaneous remission of mesothelioma cancer in Australia. The 61-year old woman, a patient of Dr. Roger K. Allen of the Wesley Medical Centre, went into a rapid remission. The physician suggests that what caused the remission was the patient's own immune system as well as "cell-mediated immunity." Further study may lead to immunotherapy as a method of treatment leading to the remission of this type of cancer.
