title: [The incidence of bladder tumor in the Autonomous Community of La Rioja in 1975 to 1991. A comparison with other studies].
abstract: Presentation of a study on the incidence of vesical tumours in the Autonomous Community of 'La Rioja' over the 1975-1991 period and comparison of our results with those obtained in similar studies. A total of 557 vesical tumours were identified, with a mean rate of 13.5/100,000 inhabitants, and a standardized rate of 20.5 in men and 1.75 in women. Our rate is close to that of Zaragoza and lower than that found in the Basque country and Tarragona in men. Also, it is lower in all women series.
