It stems from a local medical need, in order to supplement the incidence rates measured in the neighboring département of Calvados and to answer the public health questions raised by the industrial activity in the département (the nuclear industry predominantly and the use of asbestos in civil and military ship building). The registry performs a permanent and complete collection of all of the new diagnoses of cancer in the general population residing in the département of la Manche. It has a dual objective of describing and monitoring the risk of cancer and of conducting research using the analysis of the data collected or one-off surveys. Objectives of the Registry in terms of public health: - Participate in the epidemiological monitoring of cancers on a local and national level within the framework of the Francim network, through publishing incidence indicators by cancer location, sex, age and year of diagnosis. - Contribute to assessing primary and secondary prevention initiatives (organized cancer screenings), caring for patients and the care needs for the general population. null France Normandie Individuals Patients population Male Female Infant, Newborn (birth to 28 days) Infant (28 days to 2 years) Child, Preschool (2 to 5 years) Child (6 to 12 years) Young Adult (19 to 24 years) Adult (25 to 44 years) Middle Aged (45 to 64 years) Aged (65 to 79 years) Aged, 80 and over (80 years and more) All malignant tumors diagnosed in patients residing in the département of la Manche at the time of the diagnosis.
