title: [Incidence of laryngeal cancer in Segovia (1975-1991)].
abstract: The incidence of cancer of the larynx in the last 15 years in Segovia province was studied. The number of cases was studied in relation to the population and its structure using rates as a biostatistical quantification method. Comparisons with similar registries in other Spanish regions allowed analysis by age groups. The deficient statistical registers in Spain and the recent trend toward increased morbidity from cancer of the larynx are emphasized.
