Abstract
Background Bladder cancer (BC) is the 10th most common cancer worldwide and ranks 13th in incidence in Ethiopia. Occupational exposure is the second leading cause of BC after smoking, accounting for 21%–27% of BC cases in men and 11% in women. This study aims to investigate the association between occupational exposure to chemical substances and bladder cancer among patients in selected hospitals in Ethiopia.
