Abstract
British Military Hospital Dharan provides the surgeon with an opportunity, unparalleled anywhere in the United Kingdom to observe and manage a range of malignancies. The historical and contemporary reasons for this are outlined. The paper illustrates the military hospital experience and mode of presentation of a wide range of malignant conditions treated during the tour. Differences from United Kingdom practice are noted and where known, the reasons for this are discussed. Problems in diagnosis, treatment and continuing care, unique to a practice of this kind, are highlighted. The training potential of a hospital of this nature for future military surgeons is discussed.
