The worldwide burden of breast cancer is rising, with disproportionate increases in the low- and middle-income countries of sub-Saharan Africa.1 Breast cancer case fatality rates are notably higher for these regions2 because of advanced stage distribution associated with inadequate health care access and sparse oncology resources.3,4 These issues have inspired United States–based oncologists to develop global outreach programs for multidisciplinary breast cancer research and education/training. Surgical partnerships are particularly important, because surgical care is the mainstay of breast cancer treatment in low- and middle-income countries. The goals of these international collaborations are commendable and are more likely to be realized if they meet needs defined by African clinicians and other relevant stakeholders, such as the patient and advocacy community and governing bodies.

非洲临床医生在国际乳腺癌合作伙伴关系中的需求优先顺序

全球范围内乳腺癌的负担正在上升,其中撒哈拉以南非洲的低收入和中等收入国家的增幅不成比例。1这些地区的乳腺癌病死率明显较高2,因为这些地区的乳腺癌病例分布处于晚期,且医疗保健服务不足和肿瘤学资源稀缺。3,4 _这些问题激励美国肿瘤学家制定多学科乳腺癌研究和教育/培训的全球推广计划。手术伙伴关系尤为重要,因为手术护理是低收入和中等收入国家乳腺癌治疗的支柱。这些国际合作的目标是值得赞扬的,如果它们满足非洲临床医生和其他相关利益攸关方(例如患者和倡导团体以及理事机构)确定的需求,则更有可能实现。
