Morbidity registers |
Additional information regarding sample selection. | Selection of subjects fulfilling required criteria. Several sources are used to identify cases: - Anatomic cytopathology laboratories - molecular, haematology and cytogenetic laboratories - medical information departments (PMSI) - health insurance services (ALD) - summaries from multidisciplinary meetings (RCP) - clinical services - treating physicians - private radiotherapy centres - childhood cancer registries. |
Database objective | |
Main objective |
Registry objectives regarding public health (surveillance, assessment):
- To participate in epidemiological cancer surveillance locally (Haute-Vienne and Limousin region), nationally (French network of cancer registries, FRANCIM) and internationally (European Network of Cancer Registries (ENCR)) and the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) by publishing data on incidence, prevalence and survival according to location, sex, age and year of diagnosis. The registry may also identify possible cancer clusters and contribute to studies on measuring population exposure to probable or possible carcinogens, as well as the existence and nature of the causal relationship. Both Limousin and Haute-Vienne are concerned by the presence of natural radioactivity (radon) and former uranium mining sites. - To contribute to the assessment of primary and secondary preventative initiatives (organised cancer screening), patient treatment and healthcare requirements in the general population. As the second oldest European region (after Liguria), Limousin is an indication of the future of geriatric oncology in France. Registry research objectives: - To participate in the FRANCIM network in national survival studies and "high resolution" studies on cancer treatment. - To identify specific demographic traits in the territory covered by the registry that may further expertise in geriatric oncology. |
Inclusion criteria | All cases of primary invasive tumours (haematological malignancies and solid tumours, except basocellular skin carcinoma), in situ tumours (breast, cervix, colorectal, bladder and urinary tract, melanoma), benign tumours or unpredictable developments in the central nervous system and the bladder, as well as borderline tumours in the ovaries occurring in patients living in Haute-Vienne at the time of diagnosis, regardless of treatment location. |
