Abstract

Summary: Postcricoid (PC) cancer is a global rarity, however, the burden of disease in India is little known. The data of PC cancers from Northern Andhra Pradesh (AP) are scarce due to poor reporting. This is an epidemiological study of PC cancer from a tertiary cancer hospital in Northern AP. ArcGIS software is used for mapping the cases across three districts of Northern AP. The incidence of PC cancers reported at Mahatma Gandhi Cancer Hospital and Research Institute, Visakhapatnam (VSKP), was 3.5, 2.7, and 3.3 cases per one lakh population in the districts of VSKP, Srikakulam (SKLM), and Vizianagaram, respectively. The highest incidence (cases per one lakh population) of 11.2 was found to be in Anakapalli mandal of VSKP district followed by SKLM, Sabbavaram, Yelamanchili, and Vizianagaram mandals with 10, 8.9, 8.5, and 8 cases, respectively. This is the first reported epidemiological study of PC cancer from Northern AP.

来自安得拉邦北部三级肿瘤医院的环后癌流行病学资料。

摘要：冠状沟后癌（PC）是一种全球罕见的癌症，但印度的疾病负担却鲜为人知。由于报告较少，安得拉邦（AP）北部的 PC 癌数据很少。这是一项针对安得拉邦北部一家三级癌症医院 PC 癌症的流行病学研究。研究使用 ArcGIS 软件绘制了安得拉邦北部三个地区的病例图。维萨卡帕特南（VSKP）圣雄甘地癌症医院和研究所报告的 PC 癌症发病率分别为每 10 万人口 3.5 例、2.7 例和 3.3 例，分布在维萨卡帕特南、斯里卡库拉姆（SKLM）和维齐亚纳加拉姆三个地区。VSKP 区 Anakapalli 县的发病率最高（每 10 万人口中有 11.2 例），其次是 SKLM、Sabbavaram、Yelamanchili 和 Vizianagaram 县，分别为 10 例、8.9 例、8.5 例和 8 例。这是北阿伯拉省首次报告 PC 癌的流行病学研究。
