We have studied the age-related incidence of testicular cancer in the East Anglian region. The incidence for both teratoma and seminoma has almost doubled since 1960. Teratoma incidence, stable from 1960-1969 at 0.9 per 10(5) of the male population, increased between 1970 and 1975 to 1.7. This rise was the result of increased occurrence among younger men. Seminoma incidence also rose from 1.5 to 2.5 per 10(5), most rapidly between 1975 and 1980. Causes for the rising incidences have been suggested.
我们研究了东安格利亚地区睾丸癌的年龄相关发病率。自1960年以来,畸胎瘤和精原细胞瘤的发病率几乎翻了一番。畸胎瘤发病率在1960年至1969年期间稳定在每10万男性人口0.9例,1970年至1975年期间增至1.7例。这种上升是年轻男性中发病率增加的结果。精原细胞瘤发病率也从每10万例1.5例升至2.5例,在1975年至1980年期间上升最为迅速。已经有人提出了发病率上升的原因。
