New Mexico's population is composed of 45% non-Hispanic whites, 42% Hispanics, 10% American Indians, and 3% other minorities. The purpose of this study was to compare the trends of biliary tract cancer among these groups over the past 3 decades.
The state's tumor registry was used to ascertain the incidence of gallbladder cancer, extrahepatic bile duct cancer, and intrahepatic bile duct cancer.
A total of 1,449 new biliary cancers were diagnosed between 1981 and 2008. The contemporary incidence of gallbladder cancer remains several times higher among American Indians than in other ethnicities: for men, 4.1%, 1.1%, and .8% for American Indians, Hispanics, and non-Hispanic whites, respectively, and for women, 8.1%, 2.1%, and 1.0%, respectively.
Biliary malignancies are more prevalent among American Indians. Despite a decline in the incidence of gallbladder cancer among American Indians and Hispanics, it remains higher compared with the state's non-Hispanic white population.
新墨西哥州的人口由 45%的非西班牙裔白人、42%的西班牙裔、10%的美洲印第安人和 3%的其他少数民族组成。本研究旨在比较过去 30 年来这些人群中胆道癌的趋势。
该州的肿瘤登记处用于确定胆囊癌、肝外胆管癌和肝内胆管癌的发病率。
1981 年至 2008 年间共诊断出 1449 例新的胆道癌。当代胆囊癌在美洲印第安人中的发病率仍数倍于其他族裔:男性分别为 4.1%、1.1%和 0.8%,分别为美洲印第安人、西班牙裔和非西班牙裔白人,女性分别为 8.1%、2.1%和 1.0%。
胆道恶性肿瘤在美洲印第安人中更为普遍。尽管美洲印第安人和西班牙裔的胆囊癌发病率有所下降,但与该州的非西班牙裔白人人口相比仍较高。
