Cancers are one of the most important causes of death in the world. According to their high incidence and mortality, gastrointestinal cancers have particular importance among other cancers.

OBJECTIVE:

Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the mortality change trends of gastrointestinal cancers in Iran.

METHODS:

This study was performed by analyzing the reported mortality data in 29 provinces of Iran in 2006-2010. Mortality trend of gastrointestinal cancers was drawn for both sexes in the study years and disaggregated by age groups and their frequency distribution. The WinPepi software was used for analysis.

RESULTS:

In the years 2006-2010, the mortality rate of, gastric, colorectal, liver and pancreatic cancers, has significantly increased. Totally, gastrointestinal mortality is higher in men than women. Also, the results showed that by increasing age, death from these cancers also increased.

O câncer é uma das causas mais importantes de morte no mundo. De acordo com a sua alta incidência e mortalidade, o câncer gastrointestinal tem particular importância entre outros tipos de neoplasias.

OBJETIVO:

Este estudo foi conduzido para investigar as tendências de mudança de mortalidade de câncer gastrointestinal no Irã.

MÉTODOS:

Foi realizada pesquisa analisando-se os dados de mortalidade relatados em 29 províncias do Irã entre 2006-2010. A tendência de mortalidade de câncer gastrointestinal foi delineada para ambos os sexos nos anos de estudo e desagregadas por grupos etários em sua distribuição de frequência. O software WinPepi foi usado para análise.

RESULTADOS:

Nos anos 2006-2010, a taxa de mortalidade por câncer gástrico, colorretal, de fígado e pancreático aumentou significativamente. A mortalidade por câncer gastrointestinal é maior nos homens do que nas mulheres e, além disso, os resultados mostraram que com o aumentar a idade, a morte causada por estes cânceres também aumentou.
