Summary 

This document presents cancer mortality statistics based on data collected by the Swiss Federal Statistical Office. It presents mortality numbers, crude rates, age-specific rates, age-standardized rates, and years of life lost before ages 70 and 75. Tables are broken down by sex and age groups (0-19, 20-49, 50-69, and 70+). Statistics are presented for 5 year blocks of time rather than individual years. Cancers are coded in ICD-10.
