DR. WANDEMBERG’S BOOK TO BE LAUNCHED IN 2026 WARNS ABOUT BREAST CANCER, THE DISEASE THAT KILLS THE MOST WOMEN IN BRAZIL
Breast cancer remains one of the greatest public health challenges in Brazil and worldwide, even though early diagnosis can significantly increase the chances of successful treatment.
Breast cancer continues to be the type of cancer that kills the most women in Brazil and around the world. Despite medical advances and the high chances of cure when the disease is detected early, thousands of women are still diagnosed every year, reinforcing the urgent need for information, prevention, and continuous awareness.
In this context, Dr. Wandemberg will launch, at the end of 2026, a book dedicated to awareness, faith, strength, and reliable information, with a special focus on women’s health and the emotional journey faced by patients during treatment.
According to the doctor, the book was created from the need to expand the discussion beyond occasional campaigns. For him, breast cancer awareness should not be limited to a single month of the year.
“There is not only Pink October. Every month needs to be Pink October. Breast cancer is a huge challenge, and this is a public health issue,” says Dr. Wandemberg.
Global data indicate around 2.4 million new cases of breast cancer per year worldwide. In Brazil, approximately 73,000 new diagnoses are registered annually. These numbers highlight the importance of clear, accessible, and constant communication with the population.
The book addresses not only medical data, but also the emotional impact of the disease on women and their families. Throughout the work, Dr. Wandemberg reinforces the importance of faith, courage, support, and humanized care during every stage of treatment.
Dr. Wandemberg also warns that paying attention to the body’s signs must be part of every woman’s routine. If a woman notices, during a shower or breast self-examination, the presence of lumps, discharge, changes in the skin of the breast, or any other unusual symptom, it is essential to seek medical attention immediately.
The warning becomes even more important for women with a family history of breast cancer. According to the doctor, this group must be especially attentive and maintain regular medical follow-up.
“Those who have cases in the family need to be extra careful and pay even more attention,” he advises.
The launch of the book marks the beginning of a new phase of mobilization and awareness. More than a publication, the work represents a call to action for women, families, health professionals, and society as a whole.
“We are starting 2026 with this purpose: to inform, alert, and save lives,” concludes Dr. Wandemberg.
