“…In Algeria, between 1970 and 1980, prevalence of smoking increased both for blond (34 times) and for black (+50%) tobacco. In addition between 1978 and 2005 prevalence of smoking increased from 7.7% to 28.6% [3, 15, 16]. Smoking is also strongly associated with the occurrence of bladder, kidney, and larynx carcinomas.…”

Background: Incidence rates of various cancers are increasing in Arab countries and are expected to reach those of industrialized ones in few decades. This paper aimed to describe the incidence rates of most common cancers -and/or of those cancer preventable through modifiable behaviors -recorded in the province of Setif, Algeria from 1986 through 2010. Methods: Cancer diagnoses for the 1986-2010 period were provided by the population-based Cancer Registry of Setif, disentangled by site, morphology, age (quinquennia), sex, and calendar period. The corresponding population was obtained from the Algerian Institute of Statistics. Age-standardized rates (world population) (ASR-WR) were computed by calendar period (five quinquennias from 1986-1990 to 2006-2010), while annual percent changes (APCs) were computed for the period 1996-2010. Results: During the 2006-2010 period, ASR-WR for all cancer sites were 106.4/100,000 in men and 110.3 in women. The four leading cancers were: lung (18.0%); colon-rectum (9.6%); bladder (9.1%); and prostate (6.5%) in men; breast (36.4%); colon-rectum (8.5%); cervix uteri (6.0%); and thyroid (6.0%) in women. Between 1996-2010, overall cancer incidence increased statistically significantly (p < 0.05) in both men (APC = +2.5%) and women (APC = +3.7%). Statistically significant decreasing trends were observed for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (APC = −3.4%) in men, and for cervical (APC = −4.2%) and gallbladder (APC = −3.2%) cancers in women. Statistically significant increasing trends were observed for most common cancers both in men (lung:+1.8%, colon-rectum:+5.4%, prostate:+4.3%, liver:+8.9%, and bladder:+5.9%) and women (breast:+8.2%, colon-rectum:+4.5%, lung:+10.0%, liver:+5.4%, thyroid:+5.3%, and larynx:+13.8%). Conclusions: International recommendations against cancer must be strongly promoted in Setif after taking into account epidemiological transition, lifestyle, and environmental changes.

“…Prostate cancer (PCa), the most feared of these diseases, has a high incidence in the USA and Europe where it is the second cause of cancer death after lung cancer [1]. For the benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), it is a universal natural disease occuring from the fifties.…”

“…It is mainly due to the increase in the volume and weight of the prostate gland, process which is normally natural. Currently, the incidence of PCa in Algeria is not very high, but its evolution draws attention because it is the most increasing form of malignant male tumor [1]. PCa is steadily increasing from 10 new cases in year of 1999 to 746 new cases in 2008 2 .…”

In West of Algeria, incidence of prostate cancer (PCa) is growing and epidemiological data on benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are contradictory. The prostate specific antigen (PSA) joins other tests, as digital rectal examination (DRE) and ultrasound, for better management of patient. This study aimed to assess the association of previously tests with PSA-assay in diagnosis of PCa and BPH, in West Algeria. A retrospective study was performed on two groups of 234 BPH and 56 PCa diagnosed between 2010-2012 at the urology department of the hospital in Saida. Patients underwent various diagnostic tests; DRE, ultrasound, PSA and pathological examination. BPH is more common than PCa and the most dominant age group was from 70 to 79 years. DRE was positive in 67 % of BPH and 63.3 % Pca. Ultrasound examination revealed that the prostatic structure was heterogeneous in 25.5 % of BPH and 92 % PCa. Total PSA (TPSA) was higher than the cut-off value of 4 ng / ml in 37% of BPH and 75 % PCa. Histological forms of Prostatic adenomyofibroma and prostatic adenocarcinoma were the most represented. This study shows that the combination of different tests is more efficient than using a test alone for a definitive diagnosis of PCa or BPH.

“…Data records of Algerian cancers show that incidence of prostate cancer (PCA) new cases is on the increase [1]. The aging population coupled with progress of PCA screening may partly explain this increase.…”

“…According to studies, the PCA screening is usually recommended for men older than 50 years [7] while for groups of men at high-risk such as patients with a family history of PCA, it is recommended to start a screening at age of 45 years [4,10,11]. According to data provided by the specialized agencies in Algeria, it is estimated 10 to 14 PCA patients per 100,000 inhabitants demonstrating the extent of this pandemic [1]. However, PCA screening, among men aged less than 50 years, is a matter of debate.…”
