Abstract：Objective To describe and analyze the incidence and mortality of malignant tumors in Jiangyin City in 2012 so as to provide scientific evidence for tumor prevention and treatment. Methods The data of incidence and mortality of malignant tumors in Jiangyin City in 2012 were analyzed. We calculated the crude incidence and mortality rates of different genders and ages, the standardized morbidity (mortality) rates, the cumulative incidence (mortality) rates (0-74 years old) and the truncated incidence rates (35-64 years old). Age composition of the 2000 Chinese Census and Segi’s world population were used for reckoning the age-standardized incidence (mortality) rates. Results A total of 3,496 newly diagnosed malignant tumor cases were reported in Jiangyin City in 2012. The crude incidence rate was 288.76/100,000, with 355.82/100,000 in males and 221.14/100,000 in females, and the age-standardized incidence rates by Chinese standard population (ASR-China) and by world standard population (ASR-world) were 170.66/100,000 and 167.70/100,000 respectively. The total number of deaths due to malignant tumors were 2,643 in Jiangyin City in 2012, including 1,776 males and 867 females. The crude mortality rate was 218.31/100,000 with 292.15/100,000 in males and 143.83/100,000 in females. The age-standardized mortality rates by Chinese standard population (ASR-China) and by world standard population (ASR-world) were 121.49/100,000 and 120.40/100,000 respectively. Gastric cancer ranked the first in the incidence of malignant tumors, followed by lung cancer, liver cancer, colorectal cancer and esophageal cancer. The incidence of the top 10 malignant tumors accounted for 85.41%of the incidence of all cancers. Lung cancer was the leading cause of cancer deaths, followed by gastric cancer, liver cancer, esophageal cancer and colorectal cancer. The top 10 cancer deaths accounted for 86.72% of all cancer deaths. Conclusions Malignant tumors of the digestive system with gastric cancer ranking the first and lung cancer are the major malignant tumors affecting the residents’ health in Jiangyin City in 2012. It is necessary to develop effective prevention and treatment measures to reduce their incidence and mortality.
