Background: Infection is one of the main risk factors for cancer. Objectives: Epidemiology, <a title="Learn more about Pathogenesis" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/pathogenesis">pathogenesis</a>, and disease burden of infection-related cancers were reviewed by infectious agents. Findings: Chronic infection with <a title="Learn more about Epstein-Barr Virus" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/epstein-barr-virus">Epstein-Barr virus</a>, <a title="Learn more about Hepatitis C Virus" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/hepatitis-c-virus">hepatitis B and C viruses</a>, <a title="Learn more about Kaposi's sarcoma" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/kaposis-sarcoma">Kaposi sarcoma</a> <a title="Learn more about Herpesvirus" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/herpesvirus">herpes virus</a>, <a title="Learn more about Human Immunodeficiency Virus" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/human-immunodeficiency-virus">human immunodeficiency virus</a> (HIV) type 1, <a title="Learn more about Human Papillomavirus" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/human-papillomavirus">human papillomavirus</a> (HPV), human <a title="Learn more about T Cell" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/t-cell">T-cell</a> lymphotropic <a title="Learn more about Virus Type" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/virus-type">virus type</a> 1, '<a title="Learn more about Helicobacter pylori" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/helicobacter-pylori">Helicobacter pylori</a>', 'Clonorchis sinensis', '<a title="Learn more about Opisthorchis" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/opisthorchis">Opisthorchis</a>' viverrini,and '<a title="Learn more about Schistosoma haematobium" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/schistosoma-haematobium">Schistosoma haematobium</a>' are associated with nasopharyngeal <a title="Learn more about Carcinoma" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/carcinoma">carcinoma</a>; <a title="Learn more about Lymphoma" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/lymphoma">lymphoma</a>and <a title="Learn more about Leukemia" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/leukemia">leukemia</a>, including <a title="Learn more about Non-Hodgkin lymphoma" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/non-hodgkin-lymphoma">non-Hodgkin lymphoma</a>, <a title="Learn more about Hodgkin's lymphoma" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/hodgkins-lymphoma">Hodgkin lymphoma</a>, and <a title="Learn more about Burkitt's lymphoma" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/burkitts-lymphoma">Burkitt lymphoma</a>; <a title="Learn more about Hepatocellular carcinoma" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/hepatocellular-carcinoma">hepatocellular carcinoma</a>; Kaposi sarcoma; oropharyngeal carcinoma; cervical carcinoma and carcinoma of other anogential sites; <a title="Learn more about Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/adult-t-cell-leukemia-lymphoma">adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma</a>; gastric carcinoma; <a title="Learn more about Cholangiocarcinoma" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/cholangiocarcinoma">cholangiocarcinoma</a>; and urinary <a title="Learn more about Bladder Cancer" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/bladder-cancer">bladder cancer</a>. In 2008, approximately 2 million new cancer cases (16%) worldwide were attributable to infection. If these infections could be prevented and/or treated, it is estimated that there would be about 23% fewer cancers in less developed regions of the world, and about 7% fewer cancers in more developed regions. Conclusion: Widespread application of existing public health methods for the prevention of infection, such as <a title="Learn more about Vaccination" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/vaccination">vaccination</a>, safer injection practices, quality-assured screening of all donated blood and <a title="Learn more about Blood Component" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/blood-component">blood components</a>, <a title="Learn more about Antimicrobial" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/antimicrobial">antimicrobial</a> treatments, and <a title="Learn more about Safe Sex" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/safe-sex">safer sex</a> practices, including minimizing one’s lifetime number of sexual partners and condom use, could have a substantial effect on the future burden of cancer worldwide. |
