“…Hepatocelluar carcinoma (HCC), the sixth most prevalent cancer type, ranks the third leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide (Forner et al, 2012), especially in many countries of Asia (Fazeli et al, 2012). Although surgical resection is considered to be the most effective therapeutic method for treatment of patients with primary hepatic carcinoma, the high recurrence rate and early distant metastasis of HCC after surgery remains frustrating (Kobayashi et al, 2006;Tralhao et al, 2007).…”

“…Poorly differentiated OSCC has been observed in the tongue, floor of the mouth, and palate, while Rai and Ahmed's study in Karnataka found examples of well-differentiating OSCC in the buccal mucosa, the area most frequently damaged by tobacco use and followed by the tongue (2016). The larynx (36%) and pharynx (28.5%), however, are the two regions most frequently affected by head and neck cancer, according to a different study (Fazeli et al 2011). Regional variances, exposure to various risk factors, and lifestyles in various parts of the world may all contribute to this observational discrepancy (Fazeli et al, 2011).…”

Intake of oral and smoking tobacco, alcohol, betel nut, etc., with poor oral hygiene, malnutrition, and other variables are risk factors for oral cancer. The aim of the study is to determine whether there is any connection between the use of addictions, the location of cancer, and the age of the persons chosen from West Bengal's population. 104 patients with histopathologically confirmed oral cancer from the outpatient ENT head and neck surgery and oral and maxillofacial surgery departments of the Ramakrishna Mission Seva Pratishthan in Kolkata were chosen for the study, along with 100 controls. The controls and effected individuals completed a detailed questionnaire to provide information on their age, sex, addictive behaviors, and where their lesions were located, among other things. Microsoft Excel software was used to statistically evaluate the acquired data. Together with a strong connection seen in the occurrence of oral lesions in the palate region of the buccal cavity, a substantial association was seenbetween the occurrence of this malignancy and the number of addictions of the persons (p value 0.03). (p value 0.06). Age, however, does not significantly correlate with this cancer, emphasizing the significance of the concerned people' frequency and length of exposure to numerous risk factors.

“…Globally, hepatitis B or C viruses (HBV/HCV) are risk factors for around 80% of HCC cases [37]. In Iran, 80% of cases of developed HCC type are positive for at least one of the HBV markers; this virus seems to be the most frequent cause of HCC in Iran [38]. Since most cases of HCC are due to HBV and this infection was lower common in Iran, the burden of HCC type is low in this country [38].…”

In Iran, a developing country in southwest Asia, an epidemiologic transition is underway from communicable to noncommunicable diseases. In Iran, cancer is the second largest group of chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and the third most common cause of death following heart disease, accidents and other natural phenomena. There are some studies reporting an increasing trend in the incidence and mortality rate of a variety of cancers in Iran. Therefore, controlling and preventive interventions pertaining to cancers must be a main priority for health policy and it is recommended that the high-risk population receive earlier screening. In this review, incidence and mortality of colorectal, lung, liver, thyroid, and bladder cancers in Iran are reported.
