摘要:
The hysterectomy-corrected age-adjusted incidence rate of endometrial cancer was 29%, and for cervical cancer 11% higher than the uncorrected rate. Correction factors for such cancer sites are recommended for regular use. The levelling-off of the incidence of endometrial cancer appears to be an artefact caused by the increasing prevalence of hysterectomy.
