Global burden of head and neck cancer: Epidemiological transitions, inequities, and projections to 2050
From 2008 to 2017, both the number of male HNC deaths and cases decreased. However, in 2022, the men's and older people's HNC burden is still heavier. According to the projection, future reductions in overall HNC incidence and mortality are expected to materialize only in the event of a decline in cases and deaths by 2 or 3 percent or more.
