Cigarettes linked to half of deaths from 12 common cancers | Fox News

Cigarettes linked to half of deaths from 12 common cancers | Fox News: Roughly half of deaths from 12 smoking-related cancers may be linked directly to cigarette use, a U.S. study estimates.

While the largest proportion of deaths associated with smoking were for cancers of the lung, bronchus, trachea and larynx, about half of fatalities from tumors of the oral cavity, esophagus and bladder were also tied to cigarettes, the study found.
