Purpose: The aim was to provide ethnicity-specific incidence trends of cervical and uterine cancers uncorrected and corrected for the prevalence of hysterectomy in Massachusetts. %26lt;br%26gt;Methods: We used incidence data of invasive cervical (International Classification of Diseases for Oncology, Third Edition: C53) and uterine cancer (International Classification of Diseases for Oncology, Third Edition: C54-055) diagnosed from 1995 to 2010 from the Massachusetts Cancer Registry. Data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance Survey for Massachusetts were used to model the ethnicity-specific prevalence of hysterectomy. We standardized rates by the US 2000 population standard for the periods 1995 to 1998, 1999 to 2002, 2003 to 2006, and 2007 to 2010. %26lt;br%26gt;Results: Depending on the period, corrected cervical cancer rates increased by 1.2 to 2.8, 5.6 to 83, and 3.2 to 8.2 per 100,000 person-years, and uterine cancer rates increased by 143 to 16.7, 14.8 to 29.3, and 6.7 to 15.4 per 100,000 person-years among white non-Hispanic women, black non-Hispanic women, and Hispanic women, respectively. Corrected estimated annual percentage changes increased for uterine cancer among black non-Hispanic women aged 60 years and older. Ethnic disparities between white non-Hispanic women and the other groups became smaller for uterine cancer and larger for cervical cancer after correction. %26lt;br%26gt;Discussion: Corrections of cervical and uterine cancer rates for hysterectomy prevalence are important as ethnic disparities, age patterns and time trends of cervical and uterine cancer incidence rates change.
