Title

CANCER REGISTRY IN IRAN: A BRIEF OVERVIEW

Pages

  577-580

Abstract

CANCER REGISTRY is an important tool for any successful cancer control program. The first formal cancer related data from IRAN were published in 1956. In 1969, observations documenting a high incidence of ESOPHAGEAL CANCER in the Caspian Littoral, urged researchers to set up the first population-based CANCER REGISTRY in this region. This CANCER REGISTRY was established jointly by University of Tehran and the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). In 1976, another CANCER REGISTRY started its activities in Fars Province. In 1984, the Parliament passed a bill mandating the report of all tissues “diagnosed or suspected as cancer tissue” to the Ministry of Health. While only 18% of all estimated cancer cases were reported in first reports, this rate increased to 81% in 2005 in 1998, Tehran Population-Based CANCER REGISTRY started to collect data from cases of cancer referred to the treatment and diagnostic facilities throughout the Tehran metropolis. Digestive Disease Research Center, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, established four new population-based cancer registries in Northern IRAN and another in Kerman Province in the south. These five provinces have a total population of about 9.5 million, and constitute about 16% of the total population of IRAN. While the pathology-based cancer registration is in place, we hope that the addition of the population-based cancer registries, and establishment of new registries in poorly-covered areas, will improve cancer reporting in the country.
