چکیده
OBJECTIVE Our aim was to study the trend between 2007 and 2013 in the incidence of larynx cancer in a health district of 300,000 inhabitants. MATERIAL AND METHOD With information from the hospital cancer registry for the reference health area, we calculated the incidence and subsequently performed a joinpoint regression using specific software. RESULTS We found a statistically-significant downward trend with an annual percentage change of -10.83 LC 95% (-16.85, -4.40) between 2007 and 2013. CONCLUSIONS We found that the tendency of incidence in larynx cancer decreased, mainly in males, where the results were statistically significant. These results should encourage continuing prevention of smoking and alcohol consumption.
