HYGIENE AND ECOLOGY

Scentific article

Salivary gland tumours make up 3-5% of all the tumours of head and neck. The known factors that lead to onсological transformation of salivary gland cells are: smoking, ionizing radiation, the influence of viral agents (especially the Epstein-Barr virus), harmful working conditions at the production of nickel alloys and rubber; also the influence of alimentary factors and genetic mutations is under consideration. Salivary gland tumours can occur in patients of different ages. There are cases of detection of hemangiomas and sarcoma of parotid salivary glands in newborns. Tumours of salivary glands in elderly people are described. However, after the age of 70 tumours of this localization are rare. Studies from different regions of the world have demonstrated difference in frequency of tumour types, age and gender structure. Taking into account the regional variation of affection by salivary gland tumours a logical question appears about the prevalence and risk factors in different regions of Ukraine. Therefore, the purpose of our study is to analyze the incidence of salivary gland tumours in the northern regions of Ukraine (Sumy and Chernihiv regions) and to compare the obtained data with the ecological situation. The article presents the results of a statistical analysis of the incidence of salivary gland tumours in male and female population in the northern regions of Ukraine (Sumy and Chernihiv regions), analyzed data from the National Cancer Registry of Ukraine and environmental passports of Sumy and Chernihiv regions for the period from 2005 to 2016. The obtained data were compared with the number and types of harmful emissions into the atmosphere by environmentally hazardous facilities that are located in these regions. The conclusions on the results and prospects for further research are given.
