Abstract:
Objective:To estimate the incidence and mortality of laryngeal cancer in China based on the cancer registration data in 2014, collected by the National Central Cancer Registry (NCCR), and to provide support data for the control and prevention of laryngeal cancer.
Methods:The incident and death data of laryngeal cancer in 2014 from 339 cancer registries met the quality criteria of NCCR, and then adopted for analysis. The incident and death number, crude rate, age standardized rate, truncated rate and proportion which stratified by areas (urban/rural) and age were calculated. The nationwide incidence and mortality of laryngeal cancer in 2014 were estimated by combining with those data on national population in 2014. Chinese population census in 2000 and Segi′s population were used for age-standardized incidence/mortality rates.
Results:It was estimates that 23.4 thousand new cases of laryngeal cancer occurred in China in 2014. There were 20.8 thousand males and 2.6 thousand females. And 14.5 thousand occurred in urban areas, while 8.9 thousand in rural areas. The age standardized rates of incidence by world standard population (ASRs world) in male, female and both genders were 2.05/100, 000, 0.24/100, 000 and 1.14/100, 000, respectively, whereas those were 1.22/100, 000 and 1.03/100, 000 for urban and rural areas. The incidence was much higher in males than females, and slightly higher in urban areas than those in rural areas. Moreover, it was estimates that 13.2 thousand death cases of laryngeal cancer occurred in China in 2014. There were 11.5 thousand males and 1.7 thousand females. And 7.8 thousand occurred in urban areas, while 5.4 thousand in rural areas. The age standardized rates of mortality by ASRs world in male, female and both genders were 1.08/100, 000, 0.14/100, 000 and 0.60/100, 000, respectively, whereas those were 0.60/100, 000 and 0.59/100, 000 for urban and rural areas. The mortality was much higher in males than females, and slightly higher in urban areas than those in rural areas. In males, the age specific incidence and mortality of laryngeal cancer increased greatly from 40-44 and 45-44 years old, respectively, and peaked at age group of 75-79 and >85 years old. In females, the age specific incidence and mortality increased slowly from 50-54 and 60-64 years old, respectively, and peaked at age group of 80-84 and >85 years old. The trends remained similar in urban and rural areas, except for the different peak ages.
Conclusions:The incidence and mortality of laryngeal cancer in China are at middle-low levels worldwide, and there are obvious differences between urban and rural areas with distinct gender disparity. Comprehensive prevention and control strategies should be carried out according to local status and age groups.
