Patients and outcomes were identified through linkage of the Dutch Population Register, the Dutch National Hospital Discharge Register, and National Cause of Death Register.

The cumulative incidence of new cancer at 10 years was 3.7% (95% CI, 3.4%-4.0%) among patients aged 15 to 49 years and 8.5% (95% CI, 8.4%-8.6%) among patients aged 50 years or older.

In the first year after stroke, compared with peers from the general population, patients aged 15 to 49 years were more likely to receive a diagnosis of a new cancer after ischemic stroke (standardized incidence ratio [SIR], 2.6 [95% CI, 2.2-3.1]) and ICH (SIR, 5.4 [95% CI, 3.8-7.3]).
