"Evaluation of the Interventions for the Management of Breast Cancer Among Women in Nigeria: A Narrative Review"

Breast cancer is one of the commonest cancers in women and responsible for a good number of cancer deaths worldwide. In developed countries, the mortality rate from this disease had strongly reduced due to availability of efficient screening programs and profound management interventions. However, in developing countries like Nigeria, the lack of effective screening programs means that majority of the affected women present late, causing an increase in the mortality rate. In addition, the inherent governmental and healthcare challenges of Nigeria as a developing country mean that the available interventions may not be as robust and holistic as is obtainable elsewhere. This could negatively impact on the outcomes of these interventions.
