Drawing on current literature, we examined direct medical costs, non-medical expenses, income loss, and coping strategies such as debt and asset depletion. We also assessed how these financial pressures lead to delayed treatment, reduced adherence, poor clinical outcomes, and catastrophic health expenditure. At the health systems level, financial toxicity undermines cancer control efforts, exacerbates health inequities, and limits progress toward universal health coverage. The review further identified structural barriers, such as inadequate health insurance schemes, fragmented surgical services, and a lack of social safety nets, that intensify economic hardship for cancer patients. We concluded by recommending policy reforms, including the integration of financial risk protection mechanisms, investment in surgical oncology infrastructure, and the inclusion of cancer surgery in national cancer control plans. Addressing the financial toxicity of surgical cancer care is vital to improving cancer outcomes and advancing equitable, sustainable health systems in LMICs.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":38212,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cancer Policy","volume":"45 ","pages":"Article 100616"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144588643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
