Customized early detection of colorectal cancer in Nigeria identifies advanced adenomas and early‐stage disease

Combining community engagement with patient navigation significantly increased CRC awareness and enabled the detection of advanced adenomas and early-stage cancers. Expanding this model to a national level is recommended to evaluate broader impact, cost-effectiveness, and potential implementation challenges.

Abstract

Combining community engagement with patient navigation significantly increased CRC awareness and enabled the detection of advanced adenomas and early-stage cancers. Expanding this model to a national level is recommended to evaluate broader impact, cost-effectiveness, and potential implementation challenges.
