Cancer mortality pattern in lagos university teaching hospital, lagos, Nigeria.

Conclusion. The study shows that the cancers that accounted for majority of death occurred in organs that were accessible to screening procedures and not necessary for survival. We advise regular screening for precancerous lesions in these organs so as to reduce the mortality rate and burden of cancer. PMID: 25628656 [PubMed]
