Warthin's tumor previously has been thought to occur much more commonly in men than in women and rarely in African Americans. One hundred thirty-two cases of Warthin's tumor treated at The Johns Hopkins Hospital from 1952 to 1992 were retrospectively reviewed. There were 90 (68%) men and 42 (32%) women, with an overall man-to-woman ratio of 2.2:1. The number and percentage of women with Warthin's tumor increased over each consecutive decade: 1952 to 1962, 5 (21%); 1963 to 1972, 6 (29%); 1973 to 1982, 11 (31%); and 1983 to 1992, 20 (39%). A positive smoking history was found in 88% of the men and in 89% of the women with a Warthin's tumor. Eleven (8%) African Americans and 1 (0.75%) Asian American were diagnosed to have a Warthin's tumor. Also, the incidence of African Americans with a Warthin's tumor increased over each decade: 0 (0%), 1 (4.8%), 2 (5.5%), and 8 (16%). This study's results indicate a progressive increase in the occurrence of this tumor in women and in African Americans and a higher overall incidence in African Americans than previously reported.
沃辛瘤以往被认为在男性中比在女性中更常见，在非裔美国人中则很少见。对1952年至1992年在约翰霍普金斯医院接受治疗的132例沃辛瘤病例进行了回顾性研究。其中男性90例（68%），女性42例（32%），男女总体比例为2.2:1。每连续十年，患沃辛瘤的女性数量及比例均有所增加：1952年至1962年，5例（21%）；1963年至1972年，6例（29%）；1973年至1982年，11例（31%）；1983年至1992年，20例（39%）。有吸烟史的男性沃辛瘤患者占88%，女性患者占89%。11例（8%）非裔美国人及1例（0.75%）亚裔美国人被诊断患有沃辛瘤。此外，每十年非裔美国人中沃辛瘤的发病率也在上升：0（0%）、1（4.8%）、2（5.5%）、8（16%）。本研究结果表明，该肿瘤在女性和非裔美国人中的发病率呈逐渐上升趋势，且非裔美国人的总体发病率高于先前报道。
