In the life-table method, hysterectomy or corpus uterine cancer prevalence estimates were derived from cross-sectional hysterectomy, corpus uterine, and all-cause mortality data applied to life tables.
Conventional cancer incidence rates contain new cases of the disease for a given year in the numerator and the mid-year population in the denominator [ 1 ] . However, this rate is potentially problematic for those cancers in which the denominator includes cases not at-risk of developing the disease [ 2 ] . For example, a large portion of the female population will undergo a hysterectomy in their lifetime [ 2 3 4 ] , removing them from being at risk of developing corpus uterine cancer.
