The incidence of gynaecologic tumours in the Province of Sassari has been studied in order to estimate their value and to make a comparison with the ones industrialised countries. The global incidence of uterine cancer (corpus uteri plus cervix) is of 18.16/100,000 women; 11.99/100,000 for cancers of corpus uteri and 6.17/100,000 for cervical carcinoma including in situ forms. The incidence of gynaecologic tumors for the District of Sassari is equivalent to that reported in Western countries and it does confirm indeed a constant and progressive increase in tumours of the corpus uteri and a reduction in cervical carcinoma especially if in situ forms are excluded.

Abstract
The incidence of gynaecologic tumours in the Province of Sassari has been studied in order to estimate their value and to make a comparison with the ones industrialised countries. The global incidence of uterine cancer (corpus uteri plus cervix) is of 18.16/100,000 women; 11.99/100,000 for cancers of corpus uteri and 6.17/100,000 for cervical carcinoma including in situ forms. The incidence of gynaecologic tumors for the District of Sassari is equivalent to that reported in Western countries and it does confirm indeed a constant and progressive increase in tumours of the corpus uteri and a reduction in cervical carcinoma especially if in situ forms are excluded.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
