All types of cancers have been reported in Kashmir valley including the cancers of skin (Kangri cancer), lungs, breast, rectum, stomach, prostate, liver, cervix, esophagus, bladder, blood etc. The causes of such high incidence rates of cancers may be both internal (genetic, mutations, hormonal, poor immune conditions) and external or environmental factors (food habits, industrialization, over growth of population, social etc.). The incidence and mortality of diverse cancers among various geographical regions is important to initiate therapies against the wide range of cancers. The incidence and mortality of various cancers varies among the geographically heterogeneous countries worldwide, some represent the frequent type in geographically heterogeneous regions.
