pubmed:abstractText
A case-control study on 150 cases and 300 non-neoplastic controls admitted to the Obstetric and Gynaecologic Clinic B of the University of Palermo from 1977 to 1986 was carried out in order to assess the risk factors of corpus uteri cancer in Palermo area. Age at menarche less than 11, menopausal status, nulliparity, diabetes and obesity were found significantly associated with the risk of cancer; family history of neoplastic disease was slightly under statistical significance. It can be concluded that the same etiologic factors of endometrial cancer, as in other areas, may be operating in Palermo women.
