Gradual increase of cases and deaths from malignant diseases during the previous century resulted in their dominant position in the overall mortality and morbidity of the populations of developed countries. This situation led to the use of epidemiological methods in the field of non-infectious, mainly malignant diseases, applied in the past with success in the study and control of infectious diseases. The aim of this paper is to provide the urologists and other clinicians with the most common epidemiological indicators as well as their adequate use in the study urological malignancies.

Keywords: Key words: epidemiology, urological malignancies, incidence, mortality.
