Summary:The incidence of malignant neoplasms in men is higher versus women residing in Maritime Territory; neoplasms of the urogenital system account for an essential portion (13.6%) of all discussed diseases. Reduced funding to patient-care facilities, worse provision of hospitals and clinics with practitioners and paramedical personnel and minimal logistics supplies to medical facilities are the main causes that affect the quality of oncological medical care rendered to residents of Maritime Territory. Field medical check-ups practiced by oncology experts in the Territory for the purpose of diagnosing the early and asymptomatic types of cancer proved to be feasible in detecting actively the oncological pathology.
