乳腺癌是影响全球女性的最常见癌症。本文讨论了西方国家目前乳腺癌治疗的进展，并重点讨论了该疾病在低收入和中等收入国家（LMC）中的重要差异。它提出了一些论点，要求在将美国采用的一些疾病筛查和管理做法全球化之前要谨慎行事。最后，它表明对 LMC 乳腺癌的研究可能为发展中国家和发达国家更有效地管理这一问题提供重要见解。
Breast cancer is the most common cancer affecting women globally. This paper discusses the current progress in breast cancer in Western countries and focuses on important differences of this disease in low- and middle-income countries (LMCs). It introduces several arguments for applying caution before globalizing some of the US-adopted practices in the screening and management of the disease. Finally, it suggests that studies of breast cancer in LMCs might offer important insights for a more effective management of the problem both in developing as well as developed countries.
