Smoking is a leading cause of cancer and death from cancer. It causes cancers of the lung, esophagus, larynx, mouth, throat, kidney, bladder, liver, pancreas, stomach, cervix, colon, and rectum, as well as acute myeloid leukemia (1-3).
When a chronic disease is the underlying cause of death, other chronic diseases, such as cancers of unknown primary site, hypertensive diseases, and coronary heart disease, are common associated causes of death. (see Glossary for 'cause of death' definitions and Chapter 3 ' Multiple causes of death in Australia '). A larger fraction of the burden is now caused by ill-health rather than premature death (Figure 4.1). 2  Cancer (ranked 2 in 1990) and musculoskeletal conditions (ranked 3 in 1990) replaced cardiovascular diseases as the leading contributors to the Australasian total disease burden in 2010.
