| dc.description.abstract | Gynecological cancers are common and are among the leading causes of cancerrelated deaths worldwide. Gynecological malignancies have a greater physical, financial, emotional, and social impact on women and society at large. The burden of these gynecologic cancer incidence and mortality rates is rapidly growing worldwide and has become an important barrier to increasing life expectancy. In Africa, cancer is emerging as a critical public health problem. Ethiopia's cancer incidence is increasing, as is the situation in other sub-Saharan nations. The pattern of gynecological cancers varies throughout various geographical locations, but unfortunately, data regarding patterns of gynecologic malignancy are not readily available in most African countries, including our country, Ethiopia. In our hospital (TASH), as it is one of the major cancer treatment centers in Ethiopia, there is a paucity of knowledge and data regarding patterns of gynecologic malignancy, and knowing patterns of gynecological malignancies will help in setting priorities for disease prevention and control | |
