Relevance: Globocan reports 19.3 million new cases of malignant neoplasms in 2020 globally. Mammary gland cancer has become the most commonly diagnosed oncological pathology, followed by lung, colon and rectum, prostate, and stomach cancers. In Uzbekistan, malignant neoplasms of the breast, stomach, cervix, lungs, and brain dominate the structure of cancer incidence. The study aimed to analyze the cancer incidence trends and structure in the Republic of Uzbekistan in 2020. Results: In 2020, 21976 new cancer cases were registered in Uzbekistan. The ratio of men and women newly diagnosed with cancer was 0.7:1.4. Cancers of the breast, cervix, and ovary were the most common in women; cancers of the stomach, lung, and prostate — in men. Hemoblastoses were more common at a young age, breast cancer – at working age, and stomach cancer – at old age. Conclusions: The statistical information analysis showed that in 2020 the cancers of the mammary gland, stomach, and cervix were leading in the overall cancer structure, with significant differences in different age categories. This determines the need for further improvement of cancer care in Uzbekistan.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
