This study was conducted with the objective of providing the pattern of cancer distribution from a hospital based tumour registry at CMH, Multan, in comparison with patterns from other National Studies. The retrospective study of malignant tumours recorded at the pathology department from 2002-2007 featured analysis in terms of age group, gender and type of tumour. Over the six year period the total number of malignancies was 930 with a male to female ratio of 1.4:1. The common tumours in males, in order of decreasing frequency were leukaemia, prostate cancer, urinary bladder cancer, skin cancer and lymphomas. In females they were leukaemia, breast cancer, skin cancer, gallbladder cancer and lymphomas. In both sexes, the most common malignancy was leukaemia, which is contrary to other studies, pointing to a possible link with extensive use of pesticides and other agricultural chemicals in this region of the country.
本研究旨在呈现木尔坦市CMH医院基于肿瘤登记处的癌症分布模式，并与其他全国性研究的模式进行比较。对2002年至2007年病理科记录的恶性肿瘤进行的回顾性研究，按年龄组、性别和肿瘤类型进行了分析。在这六年期间，恶性肿瘤总数为930例，男女比例为1.4:1。男性中常见肿瘤按频率递减顺序为白血病、前列腺癌、膀胱癌、皮肤癌和淋巴瘤。女性中则为白血病、乳腺癌、皮肤癌、胆囊癌和淋巴瘤。在男女两性中，最常见的恶性肿瘤是白血病，这与其他研究相反，表明该国该地区广泛使用杀虫剂和其他农用化学品可能存在关联。
