Cancer is the malignant growth resulting from an uncontrolled division of cells and a major public health problem in the world. Being a legal responsibility (B.P. Koirala Memorial Cancer Hospital 'BPKMCH' Act. 2053), Cancer Prevention, Control and Research Department of BPKMCH initiated this study first time in Nepal. This study aims to determine the five years trend of cancer incidence by population based cancer registry. In this study cancer patient of all age group was conducted to assess the frequency of different types of cancer presenting from first January to last December for each years of 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017. Biopsy/ Histology were the most valid basis of diagnosis followed by Cytology/Haematology. The first choice of treatment was chemotherapy followed by surgery. The most common cancer was bronchus & lung followed by cervical and breast. Among females, cervical cancer was most common followed by breast and lung cancer. Among males, bronchus and lung cancer was most prevalent followed by stomach and larynx. Cancer incidence is increasing day by day thus comprehensive policies targeting prevention, screening, early detection, and treatment programs should be carried out in national context.
