20 January 2020 Kuwait

Cancer is the cause of 15 percent of fatalities in Kuwait, Dr Ali Al-Mosawi, Kuwait Cancer Control Center (KCCC) Manager, said yesterday. “It is the second leading cause in Kuwait after cardiac diseases,” he said on the sidelines of Tissues and Cells Conference held here. “Breast, colon, thyroid, leukemia, lymphoma and lung cancer cases represent 60 percent of detected cancers in Kuwait,” he added.

KCCC had been established as part of other steps to fight cancer, as it is the only center specialized in cancer diagnosis and treatment using the most up-to-date diagnoses and lab equipment and the best treatment protocols by the most qualified Kuwaiti and foreign medical staff.
