| Summary: | The purpose of study was an assessment of the incidence and mortality rates for kidney, prostate and bladder cancer in the Amur region of the Far Eastern Federal District.Material and methods. Incidence and mortality rates for kidney, prostate and bladder cancer, cancer registry data, and ten-year follow-up data were used.Results. During the period 2007–16, the incidence and mortality rates for kidney, prostate and bladder cancer steadily increased in the Amur region. The trends in the morbidity and mortality were determined for all groups of the study population. The quality of the service activity indicated by the index of reliability of patients’ registry was estimated. As a prognostic test, the values of «disease severity» («disease burden») were studied. Based on these values, the assumptions about the most favorable prognosis and quality of life in patients with kidney cancer relative to patients with prostate and bladder cancers were made.Conclusion. The cancer incidence and mortality rates still remain high and the number of cases continues to increase in the Amur region. The results of the study were recommended by the authors for the practical use in the cancer services of the Amur Region for the development of targeted medical, social and economic programs. |
