Abstract:
In this population‐based case‐control study of 2499 cases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and 2576 controls, the excess risk appears to be higher for a maternal than a paternal history and slightly stronger for a sibling compared with a parental history and for a sororal than a fraternal history. Among relatives of cases, the cumulative risk of nasopharyngeal carcinoma up to age 74 years is reported to be 3.7%, whereas that among relatives of controls is 0.9%.
