The pathophysiology of malignant tomors is a biological only interdisciplinary to be enlightened problem. Many parallels appear to the analysis of the inflammatorily-rheumatological diseases. One in the clinic common predominantly symptomatical view is not effective. The long discussed hypothesis of a biological releasing agency receives a basic modification and a new essential substratum through the researches of W. Schwemmler on the involvment of the mitochondria into the carcinogenesis as well as through the microscopical investigations of U. Randoll to the same subject. It is acquired a synthesis between the new facts of the biological basic research, the clinical experiences with this illness group and the physically-thermodynamic plausibility of the sketched drafts. In such view, endogene, genetic mechanisms, physical environment factors yield and essentiel biological units (possibly endobionts) a very relevant innovatives draft. The endocytobiology has the chance, to investigate essential medical circumstances out of a new view. The consequences are large for the social life.
