Abstract:
Abstract: In a previous issue of this journal the authors presented and summarized the basic objectives and tasks of the Hungarian National Cancer Registry positioned in an international environment. The recent publication is a continuation of the previous one. Based on the presentation and analysis of current statistical data, the public health background with the possible risk factors is examined. Considering changes in recent years, the mortality data are relatively stable, although slightly wavering. The trends are promising in some cancers (for example lip and oral cavity, breast, prostate cancers) however. Contrary to the barely changing nature of the total cancer deaths the number of annually reported new cases has increased significantly, which indicates a more effective role in both diagnostics and therapy. In light of the above, it is confirmed that the restructure of the national oncology care system and the European conformation is inevitable. Orv. Hetil., 2017, 158(3), 84–89.
