Abstract

For Turkey, the cancer registration record systems were started only recently. That's why, it's very hard to find the reliable information. In our, we aimed to find out not only the reasons of cancer related deaths; when, where these deaths happened, when and where they were diagnosed, ways of medical and alternate treatment but also the inside and outside situation of the person's house, such as telephone, water, electricity, water closet.
