The pattern of these cancers varies markedly according to era, region and ethnic groups, but increasing incidence trends overall makes focused epidemiological studies important. The aim of the present study was to assess the incidence of most prevalent urological cancers in

Demographic Survey of Four Thousand Patients with 10 Common Cancers in North Eastern Iran over the Past Three Decades

“…This difference might more be due to smoking prevalence and exposure to occupational hazards among men (Ahmadi et al, 2012) The mean age of prostate cancer in our study was 68 and it had no significant changes during this study. The results are in accordance with previous reports from Iran Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention, Vol 15, 2014 10197 DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7314/APJCP.2014.15.23.10193 Demographic Survey of 10 Common Cancers in North Eastern Iran (Basiri et al, 2014, Zahir et al, 2014 Conclusion: our data resulted in better understanding of the epidemiology of various malignancies in the north east of Iran, for example, breast cancer tends to be found in younger patients.

Mean age of bladder cancer worldwide is above 70 years (median73) and the incidence increases with age (Karbakhsh et al, 2013).…”
