Vaginal cancer statistics
Statistics for vaginal cancer are not reported separately but are included in the general category other female genital system cancers. This broad category includes vaginal and similar cancers together. So the numbers do not necessarily show the new cases (incidence) and deaths (mortality) specifically for vaginal cancer.
It can take several years to collect and confirm cancer data, so the statistics from recent years may not be available for some time. The most recent data available are provided below.
Incidence and mortality
Incidence is the total number of new cases of cancer. Mortality is the number of deaths due to cancer.
In 2019, there were 1,070 Canadian women diagnosed with other female genital system cancers.
In 2022, 488 Canadian women died from other female genital system cancers.
