TMMC Healthcare launched “Breast Cancer and Cervical Cancer Screening Month” campaign

To advocate WTO’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month, TMMC Healthcare has conducted a series of seminar on Breast Cancer and Cervical Cancer Screening throughout its subsidiaries all over Vietnam.

According to statistics provided by medical organizations in Vietnam and the world over, Breast

Cancer and Cervical Cancer are the two most common cancers in women. In response to countless

concerns about these diseases, TMMC Healthcare has organized a series of informative seminar on

“Breast Cancer and Cervical Cancer Screening” throughout 4 subsidiaries: Tam Tri Nha Trang

General Hospital (Oct 10th – 12th), Tam Tri Sai Gon Polyclinic (Oct 30th), Tam Tri Sai Gon General

Hospital (Nov 1th – 2nd) Tam tri Dong Thap General Hospital (Oct 31st – Nov 11th) and Tam Tri Da Nang General Hospital (Nov 7th – 9th).

During the seminars, Dr. Vo Dang Hung, MD Ph.D, a leading expert on Oncology in the country, will

disseminate useful and practical information about Breast Cancer and Cervical Cancer along with their most effective methods of treatment.

Recently, the seminar taking place at Tam Tri Nha Trang

General Hospital (Khanh Hoa Province) attracted over 150

guests. Plenty of inquiries were raised concerning the early detection of Breast Cancer and Cervical Cancer.

According to Dr. Vo Dang Hung, thanks to the advanced

technology, these diseases can be cured if early detected.

The cure rate is as high as 90%. “In order to detect and

prevent these conditions, women should perform self-

examination 10 days after their period. If you feel a lump

that doesn’t hurt or hurts a little, you shall visit your

doctor. Besides, it is advisable to have breast ultrasound

once a year and mammography three times a year. Also,

to prevent cervical cancer, you should have gynecological

examinations once every 6 months as well as Pap smear.

Children and women between the age of 9 and 26 should

get HVP vaccine to prevent cervical cancer.” – said Dr.

Hung.

The next seminars will be held throughout the subsidiaries of TMMC Healthcare. For registration
