Cancer incidence and mortality.I checked these figures on 24th March 2016 and they are the latest data.Abbreviation.JCVI:Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation NHL:non-Hodgkin LymphomaReferences.Cancer UK publishes the statistics that the exam committee will use.Statistics by type of cancer.Twenty most common cancer by incidence. Ten most common female cancers. 2013Twenty most common causes of death from cancer. 2012.Basic numbers.This table gives the 10 most common female cancers: 2013: breast – kidney. I have tagged on cervix, vulva and vagina, which rank below the top ten, for completeness. I could not find a rank for vaginal cancer, but I am sure you won’t be asked.

I have added the “mortality to incidence” ratio. This is not a recognised ratio – I made it up, but it gives an idea of how lethal the different cancers are. This explains why lung cancer tops the mortality list although it is number 2 in the incidence table, with less than half the numbers of breast cancer. If you look at the mortality to incidence ratio, you see that lung cancer is more than three times as lethal as breast cancer. Similarly, cancers like those of pancreas and oesophagus are not high on the incidence list, but feature much higher on the mortality list because they kill most of those who get them..RankLocationNumber%Mortality to incidence ratio1Lung16,0672176.35%2Breast11,6431521.82%3Bowel7,3921040.724Pancreas4,383 693.4%5Ovary4,271 658.6%6Oesophagus2,461 384.9%7Brain2,286 341.9%8NHL2,126 334.5%9Leukaemia2,084 310Uterus2,025 322.4%Cervix 919 128.7%Vulva 4050.530.8%Vagina 1110.1447%Choriocarcinoma~ 200.03Total78,755Cervix ranked 12th. in the incidence list of female cancers and vulva came 20th. with < 1% of all new cases of female cancer. Vaginal cancer is rare and I could not find where it ranked and I don’t think you will be asked. Choriocarcinoma is even rarer, with only about 20 cases per annum. These mainly derive from molar pregnancies, which are not malignant and do not feature in these figures. The latest figures I could find for molar pregnancies was 1784 for the year 2011. With all gestational trophoblastic disease registered in the UK, I had anticipated that it would be easy to find more recent figures.VulvaThere were around 1,300 new cases of vulval cancer in the UK in 2013, that’s around 4 cases diagnosed every day.Vulval cancer accounts for less than 1% of all new cases in the UK (2013).In females in the UK, vulval cancer is the 20th most common cancer, with around 1,300 cases diagnosed in 2013.Almost 6 in 10 (56%) vulval cancer cases in the UK each year are diagnosed in females aged 70 and over (2011-2013).Since the late-1970s, vulval cancer incidence rates have remained stable in Great Britain.Over the last decade, vulval cancer incidence rates have remained stable in the UK.Vulval cancer in England is more common in females living in the most deprived areas.1 in 275 women will be diagnosed with vulval cancer during their lifetime.VaginaThere were around 240 new cases of vaginal cancer in the UK in 2013, that’s too low cases diagnosed every day.Vaginal cancer accounts for less than 1% of all new cases in the UK (2013).In females, there were around 240 cases of vaginal cancer diagnosed in the UK in 2013.Almost half (47%) of vaginal cancer cases in the UK each year are diagnosed in females aged 70 and over (2011-2013).Since the late-1970s, vaginal cancer incidence rates have remained stable in Great Britain.Over the last decade, vaginal cancer incidence rates have remained stable in the UK.1 in 1,270 women will be diagnosed with vaginal cancer during their lifetime.Vagina: 111 deaths in 2012Breast (C50) 53,352 31% Lung (C33-C34) 21,044 12% Bowel (C18-C20) 18,155 11% Uterus (C54-C55) 9,022 5% Malignant Melanoma (C43) 7,357 4% Ovary (C56-C57.4) 7,284 4% Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (C82-C86) 6,154 4% Brain, Other CNS and Intracranial Tumours (C70-C72, C75.1-C75.3, D32-D33, D35.2-D35.4, D42-D43, D44.3-D44.5) 5,460 3% Pancreas (C25) 4,692 3% Kidney (C64-C66,C68) 4,418 3% Other Sites 38,952 23% Total 172,754Mortality 919 ca cervix deaths 2012.

How common are molar pregnancies?The figures for the UK in 2011 show that there were 1784 molar pregnancies registered in England and Wales and that there were 700,000 live births. From past data, this equates to around 1 molar pregnancy for every 500 babies born. This means that for each obstetric unit molar pregnancies are quite rare perhaps 1 or 2 cases per year, but for the treatment centres they are quite common with 1200 patients registered at CXH and 120 treated. What is GTD? GTD is a group of conditions that may occur when a pregnancy does not develop properly and includes complete and partial molar pregnancy. Sometimes a molar pregnancy can lead to another form of GTD known as gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) - see ‘What is GTN?’ below. GTD is an uncommon condition. For approximately every 700 pregnancies which end with a live baby, there will be one pregnancy which develops GTDGTG 38GTD (hydatidiform mole, invasive mole, choriocarcinoma, placental-site trophoblastic tumour) is a rare event in the UK, with a calculated incidence of 1/714 live births.1 There is evidence of ethnic variation in the incidence of GTD in the UK, with women from Asia having a higher incidence compared with non-Asian women (1/387 versus 1/752 live births). However, these figures may under represent the true incidence of the disease because of problems with reporting, particularly in regard to partial moles. GTN may develop after a molar pregnancy, a non-molar pregnancy or a live birth. The incidence after a live birth is estimated at 1/50 000. Because of the rarity of the problem, an average consultant obstetrician and gynaecologist may deal with only one new case of molar pregnancy every second year.In the UK, there exists an effective registration and treatment programme. The programme has achieved impressive results, with high cure (98–100%) and low (5–8%) chemotherapy rates. Choriocarcinomas?are extremely rare with about 20 cases per year in the UK. They develop from cells of the placenta and can occur some time after any type of pregnancy (including miscarriages or terminations). Choriocarcinoma is more likely after a molar pregnancy.What a risk factor isA risk factor is anything that can increase your chance of developing a particular disease. Each type of cancer has different risk factors. Researchers have not yet been able to identify what causes GTT, but we do know of some factors that increase a woman's risk of developing it.Remember?that having one or more risk factors does not mean that you will definitely get GTT. Most people who have one or more of the risk factors never have a GTT, and some people who have none of the risk factors do develop the disease. These cancers are very rare and this information is only a guide to what might increase your risk.How common GTTs areGestational trophoblastic tumours are very rare. In the UK there is 1 case of a?molar pregnancy?for every 590 pregnancies.?Choriocarcinoma?only happens in around 1 case for every 50,000 babies born.Question 1.Lead-inWhich is the most common female cancer?Option ListBowelBreastCervixEndometriumLungAnswer.B.

These girls will be in their twenties this year. We can expect the vaccination programme to produce a reduction in rates of CIN, but not to make a difference to cervical cancer rates for ten years or more as cancer of the cervix is rare in women < 30 years. However, Cancer UK says that “52% of cervical cancer … is diagnosed … under age 45”. We can expect to see a significant impact on incidence by the time they are 45 and the preceding ten years or so. The first girls immunised were born in 1995 and 1996, so they will hit their mid-forties around 2040.

C.The HPV vaccination programme started with girls aged 12-13 years in September 2008. These girls will be in their twenties this year. We can expect the vaccination programme to produce a reduction in rates of CIN in the next few years, but not to make a difference to cervical cancer rates for ten years or more as cancer of the cervix is rare in women < 30 years.However, Cancer UK says that “52% of cervical cancer … is diagnosed … under age 45”. We can expect to see a significant impact on incidence by the time they are 45 and the preceding ten years or so.
