carcinoma of unknown Primary (WITH EMPHASIS ON HEAD & NECK CUPS) cancers of Unknown Primaries (CUP): (The occult primary)
With haste and with hate, some cells run amuck,
Their parents’ they’ve spurned, yet they’re wildly in luck.
Though their genes are a mess, and really quite kinked,
To new homes, they have sped, and eventually linked.
Some CUPs they just flourish and thrive in the nodes,
Yet others are terrorists, fracturing bones.
Deep roots in the liver, in brain & in lungs,
They ravage it all, huge damage is done.
The source? We must pin it. Please, doctors, bring hope,
Strong teams must all pitch in, with immunos and scopes.
The question most fragile.. ‘How best can we treat?’
For that, smash the CUP, we must never retreat.
