This study aims to present the morbidity structure that classified according to the 17 disease classes of World Health Organization and determine the age, gender and anatomical lesion of two major disease classes: cancer (class II) and cardiovascular diseases (class VII). Subject: the medical records and anatomical results of 943 cadavers received operations in the department of pathological anatomy of Huu Nghi Hospital. The results: 649 patients (68.82%) were at ages of 51-70, rate of male patients was 96.2%. The deaths due to cardiovascular diseases accounted for the highest rate (46.13%), followed by cancer (30.4%); the mortality rate due to infection was at low (2,01%). The highest mortality rate occurred in patients with cerberovascular accident, followed by the myocardial infarction among patients with the disease class VII (cardiovascular disease). The liver cancer was a leading cause of deaths, followed by lung cancer patients with the disease class II (cancer).
