报告给国家癌症数据库（NCDB）的基于医院的数据可用于1985-1988年和1990-1992年诊断为原发性脑肿瘤的60，000多名患者。最常见的组织学类型为胶质母细胞瘤、星形细胞瘤和脑膜瘤。5年生存率分别为2%、30%和70%。组织学、诊断时的年龄、行为和位置是估计生存率的重要变量。与基于人群的登记数据的比较表明，恶性肿瘤在NCDB中有很好的代表性，但良性组织学报告不足。恶性肿瘤的生存率估计值与先前报道的研究相当。NCDB提供了其他大型数据库中无法获得的关于脑肿瘤分布和生存模式的最新信息。
Hospital-based data reported to the National Cancer Data Base (NCDB) were available for over 60,000 patients with a primary brain tumor diagnosed from 1985-1988 and 1990-1992. The most common histologies were glioblastomas, astrocytomas and meningiomas. Five-year survival rates for these tumors were 2%, 30% and 70% respectively. Histology, age at diagnosis,behavior, and location were important variables in estimating survival. Comparisons with population-based registry data suggest that the malignant tumors are well represented in NCDB, but the benign histologies are under-reported. Survival estimates for the malignant tumors are comparable to previously reported studies. The NCDB provides recent information on brain tumor distribution and survival patterns not available in other large databases.
