In general rates were higher among male children compared to females. When standardized age adjusted incidence rates obtained from different national registries were compared, the age adjusted incidence rates in Telangana were higher in both male and female children. Conclusion: The results of the present study reveals that the cancer incidence among male children is more in Telangana compared to their female counter parts.
