In light of the changing incidence and mortality rates of cancer in Iran and around the world, the importance of these diseases in people’s lives, and the necessity of updating and monitoring the trend of cancer mortality, we have decided to report on the mortality trend of gastrointestinal cancers, based on crude and age-standardized rates.  \nMethod This study is a cross-sectional examination of deaths caused by gastrointestinal cancers in Babol city, Iran, between 2013 and 2021. Data was collected from the cause of death registration and classification system of Babol University of Medical Sciences. Population estimation was obtained from the latest census reports. The crude and age-standardized mortality rates and trends ofthe cancers were calculated.  \nResults Overall, there were 1345 deaths from gastrointestinal cancers with an average age of 69.11 ± 14.25 years. The crude and age-standardized rates of these cancers rose from 24.1 to 20.1 per hundred thousand people in 2012 to 29.5 and 25.5 per hundred thousand people, respectively. This trend became more prevalent significantly with the increase of each decade of age for both men (P-value Trend = 0 . 002) and women (P-value Trend = 0 . 012) . An analysis of gastrointestinal cancers revealed a decreasing trend for cancers of the small intestine, an increasing trend for cancers of the colon, pancreas, and gallbladder, and a stable trend for the remaining cancers over the study period. Conclusion The age-standardized rate and the number of gastrointestinal cancers is rising, highlighting the importance of preventative measures such as screening, increasing public awareness, and appropriate diagnostic methods.  \nKeywords Gastrointestinal cancers, Trends, Mortality, Iran  \n*Correspondence: Hossein-Ali Nikbakht [ep.nikbakht@gmail.com](ep.nikbakht@gmail.com)  \n1Student Research Committee, Babol University of Medical Science, Babol, Iran  \n2Infectious Diseases and Tropical Medicine Research Center, Health Research Institute, Department of Parasitology and Mycology, Babol University of Medical Sciences, Babol, Iran  \n3Institute for the Developing Mind, Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, , Keck School of Medicine, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA, USA  \n4Division of GI/Liver, Department of Medicine, Keck school of Medicine, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA, USA  \n5Department of Health, Health Systems Research, Health Research Institute, Babol University of Medical Sciences, Babol, Iran  \n6Social Determinants of Health Research Center, Health Research Institute, Department of Biostatistics & Epidemiology, School of Public Health, Babol University of Medical Sciences, Babol, Iran  \n© The Author(s) 2024.
