OBJECTIVES: In Italy, asbestos has been extensively used from 1945 to 1992. We
evaluated the impact of exposure to asbestos on occurrence of malignant
mesothelioma (MM) in the Lombardy Region, Northwest Italy, the most populated and
industrialised Italian region. METHODS: From the Lombardy Mesothelioma Registry,
we selected all incident cases of MM diagnosed between 2000 and 2012. We
described sources of exposure to asbestos and examined time trends of MM rates.
Using Poisson age-cohort models, we derived projections of burden of MM in the
Lombardy population for the period 2013-2029. RESULTS: In 2000-2012, we recorded
4442 cases of MM (2850 men, 1592 women). Occupational exposure to asbestos was
more frequent in men (73.6%) than in women (38.2%). Non-occupational exposure was
found for 13.6% of women and 3.6% of men. The average number of cases of MM per
year was still increasing (+3.6% in men, +3.3% in women). Incidence rates were
still increasing in individuals aged 65+ years and declining in younger people. A
maximum of 417 cases of MM (267 men, 150 women) are expected in 2019. We forecast
there will be 6832 more cases (4397 in men, 2435 in women) in the period
2013-2029, for a total of 11?274 cases of MM (7247 in men, 4027 in women) in
30?years. CONCLUSIONS: This study documented a high burden of MM in both genders
in the Lombardy Region, reflecting extensive occupational (mainly in men) and
non-occupational (mainly in women) exposure to asbestos in the past. Incidence
rates are still increasing; a downturn in occurrence of MM is expected to occur
after 2019.
