Abstract

In most populations, the occurrence of bladder cancer is 3-4 times more frequent in men than in women.1 This reflects the more frequent exposure of men to tobacco-smoking and to occupations that imply contact with some chemicals, like aromatic amines, which are the two major recognized risk factors for bladder cancer.2-5
