Resumen |
A 13-year follow-up of 2345 Swedish vulcanisation workers showed a tenfold increased risk for oesophageal cancer. The risk for laryngeal cancer was also significantly raised. The study was based on the 1960 census and the cancer registry in Sweden. Records of the 8 cases of oesophageal cancer showed 3 of them to be localised in the upper third, 4 in the middle third, and 1 in the middle and lower third of the oesophagus. 2 cases showed poorly differentiated and the rest moderalety differentiated squamous carcinoma. |
