Economic burden of gastric cancer in Turkey

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a pre-requisite for vaginal and vulval cancers. The incidence of vaginal cancer in the UK has remained relatively stable over the past 25 years; however the age-standardised incidence of vulval cancer has been increasing. Whilst a body of literature exists for the epidemiology and aetiology of vaginal and vulval cancer, a dearth of evidence exists regarding the economic burden. The objective of the present study was to quantify the economic burden these cancers place on the NHS in England.
