In both districts combined, among adult females, cancers of the breast, reproductive system, and hepatobiliary system were commonly diagnosed, while cancer of the lip\/oral cavity\/pharynx, hepatobiliary system and non-Hodgkin lymphoma were the leading diagnoses among adult males. In children and young adults (0\u201319 years), acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma were the most common diagnoses.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The cancer distribution reported from Faisalabad and Nankana Sahib is of utmost importance.
