Association of asbestos and bronchogenic carcinoma in a population with low asbestos exposure.

M L Warnock, A M Churg.   

Abstract

Quantitative counts of ferruginous bodies were performed on digests of lungs from 100 control and 30 lung cancer patients. It was found that the lung cancer group had significantly higher levels, although only 1 patient was known to be occupationally exposed to asbestos. It is suggested that even extremely low levels of asbestos exposure may have a carcinogenic effect.
