Abstract
Despite innovations in diagnosis and treatment that have increased our ability to control cancer, it remains the second leading cause of death in Europe and is the principal cause in the under-65s. According to Eurostat, cancer accounted for 30.6% of all deaths in this age group in 2021, 40.6% for women and 25.6% for men.
