Awareness among IGBO surgeons of prostatic carcinomas invading the rectum

Abstract

Survey of the world literature indicates that the sermon preached to surgeons over the years kept on reminding them to be aware that prostatic carcinoma can invade the rectum. In sharp contrast, Igbo surgeons in both urban and rural practices have readily been recognizing this phenomenon throughout a period of 30 years.
