title: [Incidence of hospital treatment in carcinoma in situ in the German Democratic Republic].
abstract: 1. In the period 1969 to 1974 the average frequency of in-patient treatment of carcinoma in situ has more than doubled in the GDR according to the results of an analysis of the hospital case records. There is considerable variation between the different countries and districts. 2. Treatment of carcinoma in situ was provided in 95% of all gynaecological in-patient services in the GDR. 3. The application of a uniform nomenclature of carcinoma in situ based on the agreed concept of its characteristics as a defined intermediate stage in the development of a malignant process should become common practice in order to achieve better comparability.
