Free Camp Detects Stomach Cancer in 6 Patients
1 Dec, 2025
Summary
- 327 people were screened for stomach cancer throughout November.
- Six patients were diagnosed with early-stage stomach cancer.
- Two patients with backward backgrounds received free surgery.
Throughout November, the Delta Cancer Foundation conducted a free endoscopy screening camp for stomach cancer, attracting 327 participants from several districts. This initiative aimed to raise awareness and provide accessible diagnostic services.
The camp successfully identified six individuals with early-stage stomach cancer and two with advanced cases, alongside four esophageal cancer diagnoses. Notably, the program provided free surgical treatment for two patients from economically backward backgrounds, highlighting its commitment to equitable healthcare.
Senior gastroenterological consultants provided their expertise for the free endoscopies. The foundation emphasized the program's community reach and the medical team's dedication in diagnosing and guiding patients who might otherwise ignore early symptoms due to a lack of awareness or affordable treatment options.
