Salivary gland carcinoma in Shanghai from 2002 to 2013: an epidemiological study

doi:10.19438/j.cjoms.2019.02.007

Abstract

Abstract: PURPOSE: To analyze the incidence of salivary gland carcinoma in Shanghai from 2002 to 2013; And to clarify its epidemiological features. METHODS: The incidence data was retrieved from Shanghai Municipal Center for Disease Control & Prevention and re-checked before analysis. SPSS 17.0 software package was used to calculate the incidence rate, male/female ratio, age distribution, percentage of anatomic sites and demographic features of pathology. Comparisons of annual change were performed by annual percent change, Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test. RESULTS: A total of 2 308 cases were newly diagnosed of salivary gland carcinoma from 2002 to 2013 in Shanghai. The crude incidence rate was 13.93 per 1 000 000 and the age-adjusted incidence was 8.54 per 1 000 000. The male to female ratio was 1.08 with median age of 58 years old. The annual incidence was stable during the study period. Among the total cases, one third occurred in minor salivary gland with palate being the most common origin. Carcinoma from major salivary gland confirmed the 12∶3∶1 distribution. Mucoepidermoid, adenoid cystic carcinoma and adenocarcinoma NOS were the top three pathological types. CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of salivary gland carcinoma was relatively low in Shanghai. However, the demography of different pathologic types or anatomic sites varied widely, indicating different risk factors for these cancers which deserves more attention.
