Abstract:
Objective:To study the distributing characteristics of digestive malignancy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods:We reviewed the complete data of 201 dead patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus from 2000 to 2005,sifted those complicated by cancer and those by digestive malignancy,and then analyzed the distributing characteristics and morbidity of the tumor.Results:The patients(126 males and 75 females) died at the average age of(73.53?9.03) years.Of the total number,57 cases(44 males and 13 females) were complicated by cancer and 25(22 males and 3 females) by digestive malignancy,the latter constituting the largest proportion of the diabetic patients(12.44%),followed by malignancy of the blood system,the lung and the urinary system.The pancreas was involved in 4.48% of the cases,while the stomach,esophagus,gallbladder and other digestive organs in only 0.498% of them.Of all the patients,those complicated by pancreatic cancer ran a shortest disease course of about 3 years,while those with the colon involved a longest course of about 11 years.Conclusion:Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus are liable to cancer,particularly to digestive malignancy,and males are more susceptible than females.The cancerous characteristics,including morbidity and disease course,vary in different digestive organs.
