Cancer in fishermen
Abstract
Data on the occurrence of cancer in fishermen is presented. The paucity of the information shows the need for more consistent and comprehensive data collection to enable their care needs to be met. Analysis of an enhanced data set may allow causative factors for cancer to be identified. An international coordinating center may be necessary to implement the proposed scheme.
