β¦ Synopsis
In a multicenter study on the occupational etiology of sinonasal cancer (s.n.c.) carried out in Italy, we collected information about three cases which had arisen among glass workers: an adenocarcinoma, a melanoma, and a squamocellular carcinoma.
The three men worked many years as mixers andor batchers in artistic glass factories in Tuscany (Italy).
We propose a possible etiological role of arsenic dust. @ 1996
