[Incidence and mortality of laryngeal neoplasms. Soria, 1950-1989].
Age-adjusted mortality and incidence rates for larynx cancer were calculated in Soria (urban and rural areas), for the 1950-89 and 1981-89 periods respectively. Both mortality and incidence rates were higher in urban area (p less than 0.01), and in males (p less than 0.01). There has been no increase in the mortality trend for the 1950-89 period. Age-adjusted incidence rates for men in Soria are higher respect to those reported in other countries. Soria and Murcia rates are the lowest in Spain larynx cancer records, being Asturias rates the highest in the world (20.6 per 100,000 population).
