Book Description
This monograph describes the incidence of cancer in Ontario over 1964-91 (excluding children up to age 14), highlighting trends and regional differences over the 1980s.

Colon cancer rates declined from 1983 to 2006 for both males and females in the 30-49 and 75+ age groups and in females in the 50-74 year age group; rates did not start declining in males aged 50-74 years until 1988. [...] In particular, Cancer Care Ontario's Provincial Clinical Lead for Primary Care (Cancer Prevention and Control) welcomes data and graphics to show that the "shift to the right" in colorectal cancer is the result more of falling distal colon rates than of increasing rates in the proximal colon, as discussions continue around the efficacy of colonoscopy versus sigmoidoscopy. [...] The increasing excess risk in males, most apparent in the 50-74 age range, and in distal colon and especially in rectal cancers, may be important in planning preventive interventions and in targeting screening messages. [...] Doc 26 April 2011 7 of 41 1. Background Colorectal cancer ranks second only to lung cancer as a cause of cancer death in Ontario and the rest of Canada, and is the third most common cancer diagnosed in men and in women.1 This systematic examination of colorectal incidence and mortality trends by age group, sex, and anatomic subsite provides a background context for the growing implementation of Co [...] They reflect some subsite differences in screening accessibility8, in cancer etiology9-11, and in physiology, with the three specific subsites reflecting fecal fermentation, water reabsorption and storage respectively.11,12 The other and unspecified category includes overlapping lesions of the colon and rectum, cancers of the colon and of the large intestine with unspecified subsite, and cancers o.
