The incidence of malignant mesothelioma (MM) in Italy is increasing and is assumed to be a consequence of high levels of asbestos exposure. Establishment of the National Mesothelioma Registry (ReNaM) and the co-operation of five regional centers has allowed the estimation of the incidence of malignant mesothelioma in major parts of Italy and the definition of exposure to asbestos.
意大利恶性间皮瘤(MM)的发病率正在上升,据推测这是石棉高暴露水平的结果。国家间皮瘤登记处(ReNaM)的建立以及五个地区中心的合作,使得意大利主要地区恶性间皮瘤的发病率得以估算,并明确了石棉暴露情况。
