A retrospective statistical analysis was done on metastatic brain tumors collected from two predominantly black hospitals in Washington, DC. A composite African series of metastatic brain tumors was also constructed for comparison. The results indicate that bronchogenic carcinoma is the predominant metastatic brain tumor (45.2 percent) among American blacks in Washington, DC, and chorioepithelioma, the most common (20.0 percent) among African blacks. In comparing these two series, much dissimilarity in the pattern of tumor distribution between these two genetically related ethnic groups suggests an important environmental role in the genesis of metastatic brain tumors.The present study also reveals a relatively high proportional frequency of prostatic carcinoma among metastatic brain tumors in blacks (3.8 percent in Washington, DC, and 2.1 percent in Africa).
对从华盛顿特区两家主要为黑人服务的医院收集的转移性脑肿瘤进行了回顾性统计分析。还构建了一个非洲转移性脑肿瘤综合系列进行比较。结果表明，在华盛顿特区的美国黑人中，支气管源性癌是主要的转移性脑肿瘤（45.2%），而绒毛膜上皮癌在非洲黑人中最为常见（20.0%）。比较这两个系列时，这两个基因相关种族群体之间肿瘤分布模式的很大差异表明环境在转移性脑肿瘤的发生中起重要作用。本研究还揭示，黑人转移性脑肿瘤中前列腺癌的比例相对较高（华盛顿特区为3.8%，非洲为2.1%）。
