Lip cancer in Northern Finland: changing incidence and clinical characteristics
Abstract: A population‐based survey was conducted in 35 municipalities in Northern Finland to assess the incidence of lip cancer as well as the patient and tumour characteristics in cases diagnosed between 1983 and 1997. A total of 96 new patients emerged. The age‐standardised incidence (per 100,000...
