An ecological study, based on a data set containing all lung and pleural cancer deaths in each Italian municipality in the period 1980-2001, was performed. The pleural to lung cancer ratio was estimated to be 1 : 1 and 3% (around 700) of all male lung cancer deaths were found to be asbestos-related.British Journal of Cancer advance online publication, 24 June 2008; doi:10.1038/sj.bjc.6604450 www.bjcancer.com.
