ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the cancer incidence in registration areas in Shanxi Province. Methods Data of 8 cancer registration areas in 2011 were taken into account and cancer incidence in different areas with different ages was compared with that in other domestic areas. Results 8 395 new cases in Shanxi all cancer sites were reported in 2011, including 4 810 male and 3 585 female. The incidence of malignant cancer of Shanxi was 207.53/100 000, and the standardized incidence of Chinese population and world population were 125.20/100 000 and 165.72/100 000, respectively. In urban areas, the incidence of Shanxi and the standardized incidence of Chinese population were 202.49/100 000 and 112.81/100 000, respectively. In rural areas, incidence rate of Shanxi was 211.96/100 000 and the standardized incidence of Chinese population was 138.43/100 000. In Shanxi Province, the major malignant cancer sites for males involved stomach, lung, esophagus, liver and colorectum, and cancer sites for females were more on cervix, lung, breast, stomach and esophagus.
