Abstract

This article explores the limited understanding and research on myeloid neoplasms, a type of blood cancer, in sub-Saharan Africa, with a focus on Nigeria. It emphasizes the need for more comprehensive studies to gather epidemiological data and improve diagnostic capabilities for these disorders. The authors call for collaboration between healthcare professionals and researchers, as well as increased funding and prioritization of research on myeloid neoplasms in the region.
