The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK)’s Faculty of Medicine (CU Medicine) conducted a study with the Association of Pacific Rim Universities (APRU) to reveal the 10-year global epidemiology of this rarely seen cancer. The findings showed association with factors such as Human Development Index (HDI), Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita, genetics and lifestyle. The global incidence of tracheal cancer had been in decline but the incidence rates of females and the younger population in certain regions edged up.
