Mortality for cancers of the buccal cavity and pharynx, oesophagus and larynx in Poland in 1959-72 was analysed and compared with cancer incidence registered in the selected regions of Poland, with cancer mortality and incidence in other countries, and with mortality among Polish-born migrants to the U.S.A.The patterns of occurrence of these cancers in Poland appear to be similar to those of other European and American countries, except perhaps for the rather high and still increasing incidence of laryngeal cancer. Among male Polish migrants, however, mortality for these cancers was distinctly higher than either in Poland or among native Americans. This contrast, largest for oesophageal and laryngeal cancer, decreased between 1950 and 1959-61, but only for those aged below 65. Similarity of these shifts with those observed for lung cancer is stressed and explanations are looked for. Factors associated with the studied cancers and outlines for the further studies are discussed briefly.
对1959 - 1972年波兰口腔癌、咽喉癌、食管癌和喉癌的死亡率进行了分析，并与波兰选定地区登记的癌症发病率、其他国家的癌症死亡率和发病率以及出生在波兰后移民到美国的人的死亡率进行了比较。波兰这些癌症的发病模式似乎与其他欧美国家相似，或许喉癌发病率偏高且仍在上升除外。然而，在波兰男性移民中，这些癌症的死亡率明显高于波兰或美国本土居民。这种差异在食管癌和喉癌中最为明显，在1950年至1959 - 1961年间有所减小，但仅适用于65岁以下人群。强调了这些变化与肺癌变化的相似性并寻求解释。简要讨论了与所研究癌症相关的因素以及进一步研究的要点。
