Zabolevaemost' zlokachestvennymi gliomami golovnogo mozga v Volgogradskoy oblasti

The paper presents data on the incidence of malignant brain gliomas (MBG) at the populational level in the Volgograd Region in 2001-2006. The quantitative and qualitative parameters of morbidity are analyzed by gender and age in detail. The higher incidence of MBG in the Volgograd Region is due to its rise in the able-bodied male contingents and in the female population in the age group older than the able-bodied age. Further study of the organization of specialized care to patients to MBG is possible only when information available in the population-based cancer registers of the subjects of the Russian Federation as a constituent of the State Cancer register is collected and analyzed.
