The incidence of cerebral glioma in the working population: a forgotten cancer?

R Grant1, D Collie, C Counsell.   

Abstract

We studied the incidence of intracranial tumours in Lothian Region in south-east Scotland in 1989-90. Among 106 patients resident in the Region, 60 (57%) were of working age (15-64 years). All but two cases (97%) were histologically confirmed. The average annual incidence of cerebral glioma in this age range was 5.9 (95% CI 3.8-8.0) per 100,000 per year. Cerebral glioma will affect approximately 2100 people of working age in the UK every year.
