Notes:
-
For the category All cancers but non-melanoma skin cancer, the number of
new cases and deaths were estimated as the sum of the corresponding 27
site-specific numbers plus those that comprise the residual other and
unspecified cancers
(not given).
-
No attempt was made to estimate incidence and mortality from non-melanoma skin
cancer because of the difficulties in collecting (and counting) such
tumours.
-
The categories Kaposi sarcoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma and All
cancers but non-melanoma skin cancer include some disease entities that
might have been coded in mortality (but not incidence) statistics to the ICD-10
category B21 (HIV disease resulting in neoplasms).
