[Chloroprene as possible industrial carcinogen].
The authors conducted 2 independent cohort studies on epidemiology of malignancies among workers contacting chloroprene. The first study covered morbidity and mortality with malignancies among workers engaged into polychloroprene resins production in Erevan; the second study--mortality with malignancies among Moscow shoe makers who contacted polychloroprene glues and latex. The findings are reliably higher risk of morbidity and mortality with hepatic cancer, dose--effect dependence between chloroprene exposure and occurrence of and mortality with hepatic cancer.
