在芬兰北部一个特定地理区域的人口中，在四年的时间里，有446名患者被诊断出肺癌。男420例，女26例，男女之比为16.6：1。经组织学或细胞学确诊431例(97%)。在男性中，表皮样癌是最常见的肿瘤组织类型，其次是小细胞间变性和腺癌，而在女性中，所有这些类型的发生率都是相同的。几乎所有的男性，但只有大约一半的女性，都是吸烟者或前吸烟者。每日吸烟量与癌症的组织学类型无关，而早开始吸烟的患者比晚开始吸烟的患者相对更多的Kreyberg I组肿瘤(表皮样癌、小细胞癌和大细胞癌)。癌症通常是根据症状发现的，但17%的癌症是通过大众X光照相或一些健康检查发现的，12%的人是通过其他疾病的检查发现的。15%的患者在诊断时没有任何症状，这在表皮样癌或腺癌患者中比在间变性患者中更常见。
Lung cancer was diagnosed in 446 patients during four years in a population living in a defined geographical area in northern Finland. The series comprised 420 men and 26 women, with a male/female ratio of 16.6:1. The diagnosis was confirmed histologically or cytologically in 431 cases (97%). Epidermoid carcinoma was the most common histological type of tumour in the men, followed by small cell anaplastic and adenocarcinoma, whereas in the women all these types were of equal frequency. Almost all the men, but only about half of the women, were smokers or ex-smokers. The amount smoked daily had no correlation with the histological type of cancer, whereas those patients who had started smoking early had relatively more Kreyberg group I tumours (epidermoid, small cell, and large cell carcinoma) than those who had started smoking late. Cancer was usually detected on the basis of symptoms, but 17% emerged from mass radiography or some health examination, and 12% from examinations for another disease. Fifteen per cent of the patients had no symptoms at the time of diagnosis, this being more common among the patients with epidermoid or adenocarcinoma than among those with anaplastic forms.
