Abstract
The developing world poses a new set of challenges for the
ever more demanding field of oncology. Not only that one has
to cope with the concept of new treatments, there are different
patient expectations and difficulties with compromised and limited
services in remote areas. Issues such as language barriers, paucity
of trained staff and lack of health educators are common and need
to be kept in check before confirming any treatment options.
