Authors: Attard, Jason; Dalmas, Miriam; England, Kathleen
Abstract: Cancer of the breast is the most common malignancy and
the leading cause of cancer-related mortality in women.
Over the past 20 years, mortality from breast cancer in Malta
has shown a steady decline and survival from this disease
has registered marked improvement, despite the fact that
incidence continues to increase. Increased awareness as well
as the development of specialized breast care health services
have resulted in positive outcomes, with local mortality rates
approaching that of the EU-15 average.2016-01-01T00:00:00Z
