Abstract:
National cancer center of Mongolia has responsibility to produce National cancer registry annual reportwhich is collected cancer reports from primary, secondary and tertiary level of government hospitals andprivate hospitals, laboratories. MCR and indicators of incidence and mortality are important for planningand evaluation of all levels for cancer control, primary prevention, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to determine ASR and ASMRs of cancer incidence and deaths in Mongoliafrom 2008 to 2012 for comparing the results of data.Material and MethodsData on new cancer cases diagnosed in 2008-2012 in permanent residents of Mongolia, collected bycancer registry of the National Cancer Center, were used for the analysis. Incidence and mortality rateswere calculated as mean annual numbers per 100,000 residents. ASRs (Age-standardized incidencerate) and ASMRs (Age-standardized mortality rates) were calculated by the direct method from agespecificincidence and mortality rates, weighted to the World Population standard.ResultsFirst five most frequent cancers (liver, stomach, lung, esophagus, cervix uteri) comprise 76% of all newcancer cases.In males, the most frequent cancer site was liver, followed by stomach, lung, esophageal, colon andrectal cancer. In females, liver is in the first place, followed by stomach, cervical, lung, esophagealcancer.Mean annual crude incidence rate of all cancer sites was 155 per 100 000 population,in males 165, infamale 165 in 2008-2012 years.During this period, mean annual age-standardized incidence rate of all cancer sites was 218,3 per 100000 population, for male 258.9 in female 188.1with higher percentage of men.As we age, morbidity of the cancer increases approximately 2 fold in both sexes and also study revealsmen has more tendency to have cancer than women
