This study relates to the generation frequency of cancer type according to ABO blood type of can-cer patient in Korea. The research area was capital zone of Gyeonggi and Seoul along with Jeonnam province,in which 780 cancer patients who are hospitalized in the cancer caring hospital or registered in the health cen-ter of each city and province for the visiting health care were surveyed to find out the sociodemographic char-acteristics according to ABO blood type and the result was analyzed with SPSS statistic program. Thesociodemographic characteristics of surveyed cancer patients were as follows: men were 268(34.4%), women512(65.6%); in their age, 30s or younger were 34(4.4%), 40s 139(17.8%), 50s 261(33.5%), 60s 189(24.2%)and 70s or older 157(20.1%), in which 50s or older were more than 70%; in the background of their maingrowth, metropolis were 220(28.2%), medium city 198(25.4%) and small city 362(46.4%), so those in smallerurban area were the most; in the development state when they were diagnosed as cancer, the early stage(stageI) were 303(38.8%), the middle stage(stage II) 320(41.0%) and the terminal stage(stage III) 136(17.4%), sothe discovery rate in middle stage was the highest; in their care state, the patients hospitalized in the cancercare center were 325(41.7%) and those in their home 455(58.3%), so the patients cared in their home weremore. Among the 780 cancer patients who have responded to the questionnaire, liver cancer patients were 34(4.4%), stomach cancer 130(16.7%), lung cancer 74(9.5%), colon cancer 100(12.8%), breast cancer 240(30.8%), uterine cancer 34(4.4%), thyroid cancer 49(6.3%), prostate cancer 11(1.4%) and other cancers(leuke-mia, pancreas cancer, esophagus cancer, brain tumor etc.) were 108(13.8%). In the generation frequency of cancer according to blood type, A-type were 279(35.7%), B-type 193(24.7%), O-type 223(28.58%) and AB-type 85(10.9%). When compared with the ABO blood type distribution of Korean blood donators in 2012, A-type patients were higher by 1.4% than reference group(34.3%); O-type were higher by 1.2% than referencegroup(27.4%); meanwhile, B-type were lower by 2.1% than reference group(26.8%); AB-type were lower by0.6%. In the blood type distribution of cancer patients, 41.9% of A-type patients had the lung cancer, whichwas 7.6% higher than 34.3% of reference group; in case of O-type patients, the stomach cancer and the lungcancer were 33.8% respectively, which was 6.4% higher than 27.4% of reference group with the statistical sig-nificance. Meanwhile, in case of B-type patients, the breast cancer was 32.5%, which was 5.7% higher than26.8% of reference group. In case of AB-type patients, the liver cancer was 14,7%, which was 3.3% higherthan 11.4% of reference group. Furthermore, in AB-type patients, the other cancers such as leukemia and thy-roid cancer except 5 typical cancers were 38.8%, which was 27.4% higher than 11.4% of reference group. So,AB-type turned out to have higher possibility for other cancers than that of 5 typical cancers. In the experienceof natural therapy, A-type patients were 267(95.8%), B-type 185(95.6%), O-type 211(94.2%) and AB-type 83(97.6%). So, 746(95.6%) of total 780 patients had the natural therapy experience. In conclusion, the frequentgeneration positions and the generation rate of cancers were different with the statistical significance accord-ing to ABO blood type. Among the total cancer patients, A- and O-type patients had a relatively high possibil-ity of cancer generation than B- and AB-type patients and reference group. In the cancer type, A-type patientshad higher generation rate in lung cancer and stomach cancer than reference group; O-type patients had higherrate in colon cancer, lung cancer and stomach cancer than reference group with the statistic significance. 746(95.6%) of total 780 patients had experienced the natural therapy according to blood type.
