Prostate cancer is a significant health concern in the Middle East, including Syria, where many cases are diagnosed at advanced stages due to low awareness and inadequate screening practices. The mortality-to-incidence ratio for prostate cancer in the region is alarmingly high, indicating a pressing need for effective early detection strategies.
This study aims to assess the awareness, attitudes, and practices regarding prostate cancer screening among men in the middle region of Syria, with the goal of identifying barriers to early detection and informing public health interventions.
