Abstract

Rectal cancer (RC) is a group of colorectal malignancies and in recent years has tended to increase the incidence, including in Asian countries. In 2018, about 2 million cases of colon cancer were detected worldwide. At the same time, rectal cancer accounted for approximately 700 thousand new cases. In the Republic of Kazakhstan (RK), about a thousand new cases of PKK are detected annually. The article deals with the epidemiological features of RC in the Western region of the RK. Intensive and standardized rate of RC the incidence by age, gender and dynamics over 10 years (2000 – 2009) were calculated. The incidence ranged from 4.2 in Atyrau to 6.7 in West Kazakhstan oblast. In general, there was a tendency to increase the incidence of RC.
