Golestan province, in Northern Iran, is a high-risk area for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). SCC is also the most common histological type of cancers of the head and neck region including cancers of oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx and larynx. We aimed to present the incidence rate of head and neck SCC (HNSCC) in Golestan province during 2004 and 2013.
Data on HNSCC were obtained from Golestan population-based cancer registry (GPCR). Quality control and data analysis were performed using CanReg software. Age standardized incidence rates (ASRs) were calculated using the world standard population. The ASRs were presented per 100000 person-years for different genders, residence places and years.
During the 10-year period from 2004-2013, 434 cases of HNSCC were registered. 327 (75.3%) of these cases were male, 51.2% (222 cases) lived in urban areas and 351 (80.9%) of the total HNSCCs occurred in the larynx. Overall, the ASR of HNSCCs in Golestan province was 4.8. The ASR of HNSCCs was more than two-fold higher in male (6.6) than female (3.0). Our results showed an increasing trend in ASR of larynx cancer during the study period both in male and female.
We found relatively high rates of larynx cancer in Golestan province. Our results also showed higher rates of HNSCC in males and urban population. Considering common risk factors between HNSCCs and esophageal cancer, further studies are needed to clarify different aspects of HNSCCs (including epidemiology and risk factors) in this high-risk population.
伊朗北部的戈勒斯坦省是食管鳞状细胞癌(SCC)的高风险地区。SCC也是头颈部区域癌症最常见的组织学类型,包括口腔癌、口咽癌、下咽癌和喉癌。我们旨在呈现2004年至2013年期间戈勒斯坦省头颈部SCC(HNSCC)的发病率。
HNSCC的数据来自戈勒斯坦省基于人群的癌症登记处(GPCR)。使用CanReg软件进行质量控制和数据分析。年龄标准化发病率(ASR)采用世界标准人口计算。按每100000人年呈现不同性别、居住地和年份的ASR。
在2004 - 2013年的10年期间,共登记了434例HNSCC病例。其中327例(75.3%)为男性,51.2%(222例)居住在城市地区,80.9%(351例)的HNSCC发生在喉部。总体而言,戈勒斯坦省HNSCC的ASR为4.8。男性HNSCC的ASR(6.6)比女性(3.0)高出两倍多。我们的结果显示,在研究期间,男性和女性的喉癌ASR均呈上升趋势。
我们发现戈勒斯坦省喉癌发病率相对较高。我们的结果还显示,男性和城市人口中的HNSCC发病率更高。考虑到HNSCC与食管癌之间的常见风险因素,需要进一步研究以阐明该高风险人群中HNSCC的不同方面(包括流行病学和风险因素)。
