This study aimed to  evaluate the clinical, demographic, and pathobiological findings in cancer patients  admitted to Urmia Milad Hospital. Methods:  The records of all patients hospitalized between 2019 and 2023 were reviewed  and analyzed. Examined variables included age, gender, pathology and laboratory  reports, and primary complaints. The exclusion criteria for the study were incomplete  records or insufficient data. Results:  The mean age of female patients was significantly lower than that of male  patients. Breast and bladder cancers were the most commonly referred cancers, whereas  laryngeal and cervical cancers had the lowest frequency. Conclusion:  The findings of this study indicate that disease patterns, primary complaints,  laboratory findings, and pathology characteristics in patients share both similarities and  differences with  nternational trends. It should be noted that this single-center study does  not provide a comprehensive picture of cancer statistics in the province, though it offers  valuable insights into current conditions. https://abi.tums.ac.ir/index.php/abi/article/view/119 https://abi.tums.ac.ir/index.php/abi/article/download/119/67
