Genital cancers are the second most common cancer among women (after breast cancer) in some countries. The aim of this study was to determine the trend of the age-standardized incidence rates for female genital cancers in Fars province during 2003-2009. In this descriptive study, using Fars province cancer registry data, the crude incidence rate per 100,000 people and the age-standardized incidence rates were calculated through direct standardization method and using the world standard population. In addition, to evaluate changes in incidence rate trend, the Cochran-Armitage linear trend test was used. Results showed that ovarian cancer was estimated as the most common cancer of female genital cancers. Age-standardized incidence rate of all female genital cancers during 2003-2009 were 3.7, 3.77, 5.52, 6.62, 9.75 and 12.4 cases per 100,000 people, respectively. It seems that the incidence rate of female genital cancers in Fars province is the same as the other regions in Iran which exhibits an ascending trend.
