Trends in the incidence of and survival rates for oral cavity cancer in the Korean population

Objective This study assessed trends in the incidence of and survival rates for oral cavity cancer in the Korean population. Materials and Methods Data from the Korea Central Cancer Registry were extracted for 10 282 patients diagnosed with oral cavity cancer (C01‐C06) between 1999 and 2010 to evalu...

Zusammenfassung:Objective This study assessed trends in the incidence of and survival rates for oral cavity cancer in the Korean population. Materials and Methods Data from the Korea Central Cancer Registry were extracted for 10 282 patients diagnosed with oral cavity cancer (C01‐C06) between 1999 and 2010 to evaluate the age‐standardised incidence rate, annual percentage change (APC) and 5‐year relative survival rate (RSR) according to gender and age. Results In males, the incidence rate slightly decreased [APC of −0.2% (P = 0.6427)]; in females, the incidence rate increased [APC of 3.1% (P
