Hospital-Based Incidence Trends of Thyroid Cancer in Poland: Temporal Trends, Regional Disparities and Demographic Characteristics Based on a Nationwide Hospital Discharge Database (2012–2024)
A comprehensive overview of thyroid cancer-related hospitalizations in Poland between 2012 and 2024 is provided to help improve understanding of disease patterns, healthcare utilization, and future public health planning.
Abstract
Simple Summary Thyroid cancer is the most common cancer of the endocrine system, and its occurrence has increased worldwide over recent decades. However, long-term nationwide data describing trends in thyroid cancer in Poland remain limited. In this study, we analyzed hospital records of more than 60,000 patients with a first recorded hospitalization related to thyroid cancer between 2012 and 2024. We evaluated temporal trends, demographic characteristics, place of residence, and regional differences across the country. Women accounted for the vast majority of patients, and considerable variation was observed between different regions of Poland. Hospitalization rates decreased until 2020 and then increased markedly in subsequent years. These findings provide a comprehensive overview of thyroid cancer-related hospitalizations in Poland and may help improve understanding of disease patterns, healthcare utilization, and future public health planning.

INTRODUCTION
Cancer incidence is rising among young adults in several high-income countries, yet comprehensive data from Southern Europe, particularly Portugal, remain limited. We characterized temporal trends in cancer incidence among young adults (20-49 years) in Portugal between 2001 and 2022, comparing them with ol...

Simple Summary Thyroid cancer has become one of the most rapidly growing cancer diagnoses worldwide over recent decades, largely attributed to the increased detection of small, clinically insignificant tumors through improved imaging technologies—a phenomenon known as overdiagnosis. However, this rise cannot be explain...
