title: [Contrary trends of treated carcinomas of the cervix and breast. Observations in a hospital with a relatively low population mobility between 1963 and 1982].
abstract: In a clinic serving a district area with a rather constant population the number of clinical carcinomas of the cervix dropped during the past two decades, whereas during the same period the number of carcinomas of the breast which were clinically identifiable showed a four-fold increase. The diagnostic criteria are comparable. No explanation for this development trend can be offered. It is the aim of the authors to stimulate consideration of this phenomenon and to suggest collection of comparable data which might be helpful in finding an explanation.
