title: [Incidence, geographic distribution, age distribution, mortality and histologic verification of intraocular tumors in the Slovak Republic 1968-1989 (study)].
abstract: In the study is given the analysis of the data from National Tumour Registry of Slovak Republic--code 190 (ICD-9) in Slovakia over the period 1968-1989. The paper presents a survey of the incidence of notified malignant intraocular tumours: we notified 976 diseases--in male 528 (54%) and 448 in female (46%). Intraocular tumours were 0.3% of all the registered oncological diseases in Slovakia in male and also in female. A specific incidence in Slovakia was found to be 1,0/100,000 inhabitants in male, and 0.8/100,000 inhabitants in female and the registered data are comparable to those from surrounding countries in Europe. The mortality rate was found over 0.3/100,000 inhabitants. Microscopically verified were over 90% of the intraocular tumours.
