Abstract
The prostate cancer incidence by stage varied between 1998 and 2004, with a significantly higher proportion of localized stages, which can be explained by the increased use of screening and diagnostic tests. Routine surveys can measure trends and the amplitude of incidence variations in the population of a region. A representative survey conducted in centres throughout France would allow evaluation of national trends between two publications of incidence by stage results in French registries.
