Abstract

Many types of cancer are etiologically linked to infections. Historically, it has been a challenge to prove the causal link between an infectious agent and a given type of cancer; different sets of causal criteria have been applied according to the methodological approach used to study the putative association (Franco et al. 2004). Yet, epidemiologic and molecular evidence to date unequivocally demonstrate causal links between viruses, bacteria, and protozoan and metazoan parasites, and many forms of cancer.
