Zimbabwean men have been urged to undergo breast cancer screenings, as the disease affects both men and women.
The call was made by Cimas Health Group chief executive officer Vuli Ndlovu on Friday during the Cimas Pink-Tober Breast Cancer Breakfast Meeting at the health insurance organisation’s Borrowdale Office in Harare to mark Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Said Ndlovu (via <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200033497/men-urged-to-get-screened-for-breast-cancer">NewsDay</a>):
<blockquote>
Breast cancer remains a significant health challenge, but early detection can save lives. We are committed to providing accessible health solutions and educating our communities to ensure every woman has the opportunity for early diagnosis and treatment.
Health experts confirm that men are also at risk of developing breast cancer. While male breast cancer is rare, men, especially older ones, should remain vigilant and get regular check-ups.
</blockquote>
Ndlovu said when breast cancer is diagnosed early, the disease is highly treatable. However, he said if breast cancer is diagnosed at a later stage, it becomes much more difficult to treat as it may have already spread to other organs.
The Cimas Pink-Tober Breast Cancer Breakfast Meeting, which brought together cancer patients and survivors to share their personal experiences, was one of the initiatives organized by Cimas as part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month commemorations in October.
Breast Cancer Awareness Month is observed globally each October to raise awareness about the disease and promote the importance of early detection and screening.
According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer globally, with approximately 2.3 million new cases reported annually.
Breast cancer accounts for one in eight cancer cases among both men and women, and it constitutes a quarter of all cancer cases in women.

Men in Zimbabwe are being asked to get checked for breast cancer. It is not just a women's disease. Early detection is important for treatment. Even though it is rare, men can get breast cancer too. If breast cancer is found early, it can be treated. Cimas Health Group is organizing events to raise awareness during Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October. Breast cancer is a big issue globally, with many new cases each year. It is important for both men and women to get checked regularly.

Men Urged To Get Screened For Breast Cancer

Both men and women have been urged to get screened regularly to survive breast cancer which is a significant health issue in Zimbabwe, affecting both women and men. According to the 2018 National Cancer Registry annual report, there were 7,841 reported cases of cancer in the country, with breast cancer being the third most common type. However, there is a lack of awareness about breast cancer and its causes among the population.
Early diagnosis is crucial for improving the chances of survival, said <a href="https://www.herald.co.zw/normalise-getting-screened-for-breast-cancer/">Zimpapers’ Rumbidzai Zinyuke</a>. Unfortunately, in Zimbabwe, most cases of breast cancer are diagnosed at advanced stages. This is often due to a lack of knowledge and limited access to information about the disease. Many women do not have access to informational adverts or awareness campaigns that could educate them about the importance of early detection.
Women above the age of 40 are at a higher risk of developing breast cancer, but it can also affect younger women and men. Women with a family history of breast cancer need to be aware of their risk and get screened regularly. Making lifestyle changes can also help reduce the risk, such as reducing alcohol intake and maintaining a healthy weight.
Symptoms of breast cancer include lumps or thickening in the breast, changes in breast size or appearance, dimpling or redness, nipple changes, and abnormal nipple discharge. Women must seek medical attention if they notice any of these symptoms.
Treatment options for breast cancer include surgery and radiation therapy. Early detection and timely treatment can significantly improve the chances of survival.
Public health education and awareness campaigns are essential to increase knowledge about breast cancer and encourage women to seek medical help at the earliest signs of the disease. Regular mammograms are recommended for women over the age of 40.

Men And Women Urged To Get Screened Regularly To Survive Breast Cancer

The Deputy Minister of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services Kindness Paradza has called on men to get tested for breast cancer.
Breast cancer is most often found in women, but it can form in men’s breast tissues, especially in older men.
Studies have shown that 1 out of every 100 breast cancers diagnosed in the United States is found in a man.
Addressing journalists on Wednesday, 26 October at a breast cancer awareness and screening programme for media practitioners, Paradza said:
<blockquote>
I want to encourage all men to get breast cancer screening because it’s men who tend to believe that breast cancer is only for women. Screening is done for free. You may not know that you have cancer.
</blockquote>
Paradza also challenged journalists to write more stories about breast cancer and raise awareness.
The event was organised by the Premier Service Medical Aid Society (PSMAS) and included free testing for breast cancer, glucose, blood pressure and Body Mass Index (BMI) for journalists.
Oncologist Nomsa Tsikai also encouraged men to get checked regularly for breast cancer. | <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200002591/men-urged-to-test-for-breast-cancer">NewsDay</a>

Men Urged To Get Checked For Breast Cancer

Former Deputy Prime Minister Thokozani Khupe has urged both men and women to get screened for breast cancer as early detection and treatment boosts one’s chances of survival.
Khupe made the call as the world dedicates the rest of October to raising awareness on breast cancer.
The former trade unionist was diagnosed with breast cancer in May 2011 and underwent treatment and surgery which cost her one of her breasts.
In 2021, Khupe founded the Thokozani Khupe Cancer Foundation (TKCF) to raise awareness on cancer. She said:
<blockquote>
It is therefore important to note that men are affected and hence the need for both sexes to do screening and self-examination. Early detection of cancer saves lives.
I am a living testimony of that. I was diagnosed 11 years ago but after treatment, I am cured and still alive even today.
The TKCF turns 10 years old this October as it was launched on the 24th of October 2012. 
We continue to advocate for the establishment of cancer screening and treatment facilities in all the 1 958 wards in Zimbabwe as well as that cancer screening and treatment must be available, affordable and accessible taking into consideration that we have only two hospitals catering for cancer.
</blockquote>
Khupe called for the establishment of a Cancer Levy in line with the Aids Levy to make cancer treatment available, accessible and affordable for all Zimbabweans. She added:
<blockquote>
The sad reality is, women only discover that they have breast cancer when their cancer is at stage three or four, due to a lack of awareness and barriers to health services. 
Stages three and four are advanced stages such that very little can be done.
</blockquote>
Breast cancer is the second leading cancer in Zimbabwe. Studies have shown that one in every 10 women will have breast cancer and one in every 100 men will also have breast cancer. | <a href="https://www.chronicle.co.zw/men-are-not-safe-from-breast-cancer-khupe/">Chronicle</a>

Thokozani Khupe Urges Men To Get Screened For Breast Cancer

A leading medical aid society, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Cimas">CIMAS</a> has been ordered to compensate a cancer patient whose kidneys were destroyed after being supplied with the wrong medication for two weeks.
CIMAS has been ordered to pay ZW$500 000 to the patient, Caroline Nyika, after it was proved that the medical aid society gave her hair loss medication, instead of breast cancer medication for two weeks.
The order was initially granted by a magistrate after Nyika filed a ZW$1 million lawsuit against CIMAS.
The magistrate reduced the claim on grounds that Nyika was already suffering from a chronic disease.
CIMAS, however, took the matter up to the High Court where it filed an appeal arguing that Nyika was not entitled to “any compensation” and the magistrate erred in concluding they were liable.
High Court judges of appeal, Justices Fatima Maxwell and Amy Tsanga ruled that CIMAS should simply pay because the company had already admitted the mistake. The judges ruled:
<blockquote>
This ground of appeal shows that appellant is desperately clutching a straw in an effort to reverse the lower court’s decision.
The appeal has no merit at all and it cannot succeed. The appeal fails and the following order is made.
</blockquote>
<h2>What transpired:</h2>
According to court papers seen by <a href="https://www.newzimbabwe.com/horror-cancer-patient-develops-kidney-failure-after-medical-aid-society-dispenses-wrong-medication/">NewZimbabwe.com</a>, Nyika developed kidney failure after taking the wrong medication.
She then initiated a lawsuit claiming ZW$1 million from CIMAS.
The matter was heard by a magistrate who ruled that CIMAS was at fault.
The magistrate dismissed CIMAS’ claim that there were no side effects on the basis that there was no evidence that the medication is safe for women as clearly indicated that it was to be taken by men only.
The lower court found CIMAS liable to pay the damages for the pain and suffering that Nyika went through because of its negligence.
At the onset of the trial at the lower court, the medical aid company admitted to having dispensed the wrong medication but argued that Nyika had not provided enough evidence to show that it was the side effects of the wrong medication she was given.

Free Best Cancer Screening For All Women

Health experts have accused doctors at Mpilo Central Hospital of overcharging a breast cancer patient Ms Phanankosi Dube for an operation to remove her breasts. The doctors are said to have demanded $10 000 for the operation which health experts say should cost at most $2 000 at a public health institution like Mpilo.
After The Chronicle published her story, a doctor from Parirenyatwa Group of Hospitals in Harare, phoned the late Dube’s family and said that the operation could be done at the hospital for less than $2 000. Mpilo Central Hospital clinical director Dr Solwayo Ngwenya said the minimum cost for operating one breast is $754. He said that the patient pays $12 consultation fee, $30 ward deposit and $200 theatre fee and is given the bill showing the balance after the operation which they can pay later.
Ngwenya said that the hospital does not turn away patients for not having the money to pay but are instead treated and the issue of payment is addressed later.
