Abstract
Objectives
The aim of this study is to describe the distribution of sites and morphologic findings of the stomach cancer in Jejudo.
Methods
From the Jejudo Regional Cancer Registry databases, the subjects were constructed by condition of the incidents of stomach cancer in 2000 among Jejudo residents. The databases also supplied the individual information of the topology and morphology on subjects.
Results
The order of ranks in the topology and morphology of stomach cancer was nearly same as that of Korea Central Cancer Registry databases, which represented the nationwide condition of cancer incidence. However, there were some differences in dominant site and morphology between men and women.
Conclusions
The results showed that the occurring mechanism of stomach cancer would not be different between Jejudo and other area of Korea. But some further studies to evaluate sex-related risk factors of stomach cancer should be necessary near future.
