ABSTRACT
The nexus between cancer and microorganisms is a well-known
association in which bacteria, viruses and parasites are involved. In
order to establish this association, it is necessary to demonstrate the
participation of microorganisms in the etiopathogenesis of cancer,
namely its carcinogenic capacity. This information is crucial because
certain types of cancer could be prevented through vaccines.
