Cancer
As a smoker, or someone who wants to know how to encourage someone to quit smoking,
you will be concerned about the connection between smoking and cancer. All smokers

“My dad died of lung cancer as a result of smoking. He was the colour of tobacco and he had lost four stone in weight by the time he died.”

In 2000, there were 42,800 cancer deaths in the UK attributable to smoking: approximately a third of all cancer deaths . Cigarette smoking is an important cause of cancers of the lung, larynx (voice box), pharynx (throat), oesophagus, bladder, kidney and pancreas. A recent review by the International Agency for Research on Cancer found that, in addition to these cancers, smoking is a cause of cancer of the nasal cavities and nasal sinuses, stomach liver, cervix and myeloid leukaemia.
Lung cancer is the most common cancer in the world with 1.3 million new cases diagnosed every year. Up until quite recently, lung cancer was the most frequently occurring cancer in the UK; it has now been overtaken by breast cancer but it still accounts for 1 in 7 new cancer cases, that is, around 38,400 new patients annually. In Britain, one person every fifteen minutes is diagnosed with lung cancer. Lung cancer is the cancer most commonly associated with smoking: around 90% of all lung cancers are caused by smoking, either directly or through indirect exposure. Because of its poor prognosis, lung cancer is still the most common cause of cancer death in the UK, with around 33,600 deaths each year, accounting for 6% of all deaths and 22% of all cancer deaths in the UK.
