The spreading of information on asbestos carcinogenicity within the Italian scientific community before 1965. The paper deals with the development of recognition of asbestos carcinogenicity within the Italian scientific community. This development was difficult in Italy as in other countries. Articles and other papers in handbooks and congress proceedings, by Italian authors, published in the period 1934-1965, were considered. The first cases of lung cancer in Italian workers exposed to asbestos were observed in 1955-56, the first cases of malignant mesothelioma in 1965. The cases observed were very few, but knowledge on asbestos carcinogenicity became widespread within the Italian scientific community during the fifties (from 1953 on wards) with the publication of several handbooks of occupational medicine.
1965年前意大利科学界关于石棉致癌性信息的传播。本文探讨了意大利科学界对石棉致癌性的认识发展情况。在意大利，如同在其他国家一样，这一发展历程充满困难。我们研究了1934年至1965年间意大利作者发表在手册和会议论文集上的文章及其他论文。1955 - 1956年观察到意大利接触石棉的工人中首例肺癌病例，1965年观察到首例恶性间皮瘤病例。观察到的病例数量很少，但在五十年代（从1953年起），随着几本职业医学手册的出版，关于石棉致癌性的知识在意大利科学界得到了广泛传播。
