Tunisia reports 4,500 annual breast cancer cases
Tunisia records approximately 4,500 new cases of breast cancer annually, and this number is expected to rise to around 6,000 cases by 2030. Awareness campaigns emphasize the importance of early detection, which can increase survival chances to 100% and help most patients avoid chemotherapy, especially as changing demographic demographics lead to a higher proportion of elderly individuals. Additionally, campaigns and research highlight the necessity of performing annual screenings for early diagnosis and improving lifestyle habits through regular exercise and reducing risk factors such as obesity. These measures aim to limit disease progression and reduce treatment costs, which exceed 200 million dinars per year.
