Charts of 42 black patients with multiple malignant neoplasms were among 1,953 cancer patients selected for review during the period of 1959 through 1979. The incidence was 2.15 percent. Most patients were female and the breast was the most frequent initial primary carcinoma. With this relatively small number of cases, there was no consistent cluster of initial and second primaries about which to make inferences. In the absence of a regional registry of primary tumor incidence, no generalities could be obtained concerning a matched non-black population on the incidence of multiple primaries. However, comparison of this group could be made with data previously recorded.
在1959年至1979年期间挑选用于回顾的1953例癌症患者中，有42例患有多发性恶性肿瘤的黑人患者的病历。发病率为2.15%。大多数患者为女性，最常见的首发原发性癌是乳腺癌。由于病例数量相对较少，不存在关于初始和第二原发性肿瘤的一致聚集情况以供推断。在缺乏原发性肿瘤发病率区域登记处的情况下，无法获得关于匹配的非黑人人群多发性原发性肿瘤发病率的一般性结论。然而，可以将该组与先前记录的数据进行比较。
