康涅狄格在30年的时间里，脑部和脑膜肿瘤的年龄特异性发病率模式显示出一个早期的高峰，随后是一个更高更陡的高峰，在55-65岁年龄组达到最大值。这条整体曲线反映了胶质母细胞瘤的模式，这种肿瘤占组织学确诊病例的大多数。报告的比率可能低估了实际比率。脑肿瘤的各种组织学类型显示出充分不同的流行病学模式，可被视为单独的疾病。
The age-specific incidence pattern for tumors of the brain and cranial meninges in Connecticut over a 30-year period shows an early peak followed by a taller and sharper peak with a maximum in the 55-65 year age group. This overall curve reflects the pattern shown for glioblastoma, the tumor accounting for the majority of the histologically confirmed cases. The reported rates are probably underestimates of the actual rates. The various histologic types of brain tumors reveal sufficiently distinct epidemiologic patterns to be considered as separate diseases.
