Abstract

Background: Cancer is one of the leading causes of death throughout the world. Analyzing the incidence of cancer by site, sex and age is essential to detect the burden of cancer. Throughout the twelve hospital based cancer registries of Nepal, a total of 29,802 cancer cases with known age, were registered from January 1st 2010 to 2013 December 31st. The purpose of this retrospective study is to present the incidence of all cancer sites in both males and females for this period.

Materials and methods: This paper reviews data from all the hospital based cancer registries over a four-year period. This retrospective study has illustrated the number of cases, frequencies and crude incidence of all cancers by sex and site. For statistical analysis, SPSS (version 23.0) and Microsoft Excel 2010 were used.

Results: Over the four-year period from January 1st 2010 to 2013 December 31st the major cancer in males was identified as follows: lung cancer (17.5%) followed by stomach cancer (7.6 %) and larynx cancer (5.4%). Among females, for the same four-year period, the three common cancers were identified as cervix (18.9 %) followed by breast (15.6 %) and lung (10.2%).

Conclusion: This retrospective study concluded that cancer is being increased by calendar years both in males and females however, the incidence of cancer is higher in females compared to males. .

2010年至2013年尼泊尔医院癌症发病率。

背景:癌症是全世界主要的死亡原因之一。按部位、性别和年龄分析癌症发病率对于发现癌症负担至关重要。在尼泊尔12个医院癌症登记处，从2010年1月1日至2013年12月31日共登记了29 802例已知年龄的癌症病例。这项回顾性研究的目的是展示这一时期男性和女性所有癌症部位的发病率。材料和方法:这篇论文回顾了所有基于医院的癌症登记超过四年的数据。这项回顾性研究说明了按性别和部位划分的所有癌症的病例数、频率和粗发病率。统计分析采用SPSS(23.0版)和Microsoft Excel 2010。结果:在2010年1月1日至2013年12月31日的四年时间里，男性的主要癌症是肺癌(17.5%)，其次是胃癌(7.6%)和喉癌(5.4%)。在女性中，同样的四年期间，三种常见的癌症被确定为宫颈癌(18.9%)，其次是乳腺癌(15.6%)和肺癌(10.2%)。结论:这项回顾性研究得出结论，男性和女性的癌症发病率随着日历年的增加而增加，但女性的癌症发病率高于男性。
