[Role of migration processes in oncologic epidemiology of Siberia and Far East].
The paper presents the analysis of the cancer death rates among the population of a Norilsk industrial area and compares the rate and structure among newcomers and natives. The persons who long live in this area more frequently die of cancer diseases than migrants. They have high mortality rates for most sites (the stomach, esophagus, bowel, liver, pancreas). The migrants die younger and chiefly of tumors of respiratory organs, the skin, brain, and female genitals. The lower mortality rates in the newcomers are attributable to their departure to their former residence places.
