Methods All related data of cancer patients from 2005 to 2015 were collected, sorted and analyzed in view of malignant tumor incidence, gender, age and tumor distribution characteristics. Statistical analysis was performed using Excel2007 and SPSS16.0. Results From 2011 to 2015 the number of cases of malignant tumor patients showed an increasing trend year by year. The number of hospitalized patients with cancer in 2015 was 1.85 times of that in 2011, and the average annual growth rate of the number of cancer hospitalization was 16.92%. During 5 years, among hospitalized patients with cancer admitted to Guangdong Second Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital there were more men than women, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=5.029, P=0.025). The lowest sex ratio was in 2011, which was 1.41∶1. In 2014 the sex ratio reached up to 1.71∶1, the highest. Cases of malignant tumors of top 10 diseases were 4 293 cases, accounting for 84.51% of all malignant tumors; lung cancer topped the list, the constituent ratio of 18.21%, followed by esophageal cancer (12.11%), cervical cancer (11.69%), breast cancer (9.61%), and colorectal cancer (8.80%). The top five diseases of cancer for men were lung cancer, esophageal cancer, liver cancer, colorectal cancer, and stomach cancer, while those for women were cervical cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, colorectal cancer, and lung cancer. Conclusion Hospitalized cancer patients are increasing year by year, and lung cancer among malignant tumors ranks first. We should strengthen the prevention and control of key types of cancer, and carry out universal screening for cancer early diagnosis and early treatment.
