Shifting epidemiology of pancreatic cancer in Southeast Spain (1983-2018): emerging patterns in younger women and neuroendocrine neoplasms

PC incidence increased in the Spanish region of Murcia, particularly among younger women and pNEN patients. Survival improved, doubling from the 1990s to the 2010s. These findings highlight the need to develop preventive strategies targeting high-risk populations, especially young women, while improving early PC diagnosis to continue increasing PC survival rates.

Abstract

PC incidence increased in the Spanish region of Murcia, particularly among younger women and pNEN patients. Survival improved, doubling from the 1990s to the 2010s. These findings highlight the need to develop preventive strategies targeting high-risk populations, especially young women, while improving early PC diagnosis to continue increasing PC survival rates.
