The authors have studied the rate of malignant head and neck tumors morbidity among the population of Vinnitsa Province for 1960--1974 as well as the condition of stationary medical service, frequency of hospitalization, and average terms of patients' stay at the hospital. The index for specialized hospital beds for patients with malignant head and neck tumors was found to be 2.6 per 100 000 population. Within a 15-year period an average annual utilization of hospital beds for every 100 patients with lip cancer rated 7.2 beds, with cancer of the tongue--22.4, salivary glands--11.7, oral mucosa--19.7, pharynx--15.6, nose and sinuses--15.3, larynx--20.7, jaw--20.9, skin--5.3.
