| Resumen |
A retrospective study in 439 foundry workers and 1,103 controls showed a significant excess in lung cancer deaths in the foundry workers aged 45-64 years against the controls and a standard population. The highest rates were found in crane operators, finishers, moulders, coremakers and electric furnace/open hearth operators. Reasons for the apparent excess of lung cancer are surmised. |
