[Tumour frequency in autopsy cases. V. The leucoses (author's transl)].
The analysis is based on the catalogue of neoplasms notifiable in the German Democratic Republic (ICD-Code Nrs. 140-209, 210.2, 211.3, 211.9, 225, 226.2, 226.3, 253.2, 702, 757.2). At the Medical Academy of Erfurt 22155 autopsies (12212 males, 9943 females) of adults (15 years and upwards) were registered in the period from 1950 to 1966. Among them 322 leucoses (1,5% of autopsies and 4,3% of malignant tumours) were observed. The cases are distributed among 175 males (1,4% of males) and 147 females (1,5% of females). There is no sex difference in frequency. Age and sex distribution are presented for all leucoses and for chronic lymphatic leucosis, chronic myeloic leucosis and acute leucoses.
