During the period 1988-1992, a total of 4,030 malignant neoplasms were recorded in Kingston and St. Andrew, Jamaica. These comprised 1,829 in males and 2,201 in females. Histological confirmation was obtained in 83.4%. The crude incidence rate for males was 128.5, and 136.2 for females. The age-standardized rates (ASR) were 179.9 for males and 166.1 for females. Age-specific rates by site, sex and age are tabulated. Attention is drawn to increased incidence for cancers of prostate, larynx, bronchus and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in males. There was also an increase in female breast cancer (crude rate 36.0; ASR 47.1). Invasive cervix cancer has shown no significant change in incidence. Neoplasms of the body of the uterus have increased (crude rate 7.6; ASR 9.5). The rise in cancer of breast and body of uterus suggests that the influence of exogenous oestrogens should be considered.
1988年至1992年期间，牙买加金斯敦和圣安德鲁共记录了4030例恶性肿瘤病例。其中男性1829例，女性2201例。83.4%的病例获得了组织学确诊。男性的粗发病率为128.5，女性为136.2。年龄标准化率（ASR）男性为179.9，女性为166.1。按部位、性别和年龄列出了特定年龄发病率。值得注意的是，男性前列腺癌、喉癌、支气管癌和非霍奇金淋巴瘤的发病率有所上升。女性乳腺癌发病率也有所增加（粗发病率36.0；ASR 47.1）。浸润性宫颈癌发病率无显著变化。子宫体肿瘤有所增加（粗发病率7.6；ASR 9.5）。乳腺癌和子宫体癌发病率的上升表明应考虑外源性雌激素的影响。
