METHODS This descriptive and cross-sectional study was performed among 459 cancer inpatients treating at Medical Oncology Department. Data were obtained via a questionnaire form revealed socio-demographic characteristics, smoking-related attitude and behaviors. RESULTS Of the participants, the mean age was 57.42 +/- 13.29 (range: 1891), 52.9% were male. The prevalence of current smokers was 9.6%, former smokers 48.1%, never-smokers 42.3%. respectively. While respiratory tract cancers (32.1%), GIS (24.3%) and colorectal cancers (18.9%) were seen frequently in the male gender, breast cancer (46.8%) GIS cancers (15.3%) and colorectal cancers (12.5%) were seen frequently in the female. While the frequency of the respiratory tract cancers was 30.6% in the smoker cancer patients, this rate was 4.6% in never smokers. The frequency of the respiratory tract cancers was higher in the smoker cancer patients than never smoker cancer patients (RR=6.65). Of the respiratory tract cancers, 26.0% was attributed to cigarette smoking. CONCLUSION Particularly, smoking plays an important role in the development of lung cancer. Common cancers shows differences according to gender and age. So, the socio-demographic characteristics should be considered while the cancer screening programs are developing.en_US
