摘要：

The present situation concerning potentially cancerogenous chromium compounds listed in the table of threshold limit values (TLV's) is described, followed by an empirical case report on 27 cases of diseases of the lung after exposition to various chromium compounds. A documentation of the 'Berufsgenossenschaft der Chemischen Industrie' (Association of the Chemical Industry) covering seven companies with exposition times between 1899 and 1968 was evaluated for this report. Information on 14 cases of bronchial carcinoma after exposition to chromium-VI compounds, on three cases of bronchial carcinoma after exposition to chromium-III compounds, eight cases of lung disease without carcinoma, and two additional cases is presented in the form of tables. A discussion concerning the criteria of confirmation of new malignancies as occupational diseases, based on the data presented and on recent literature, follows. The probability, and/or the possibility of cause and effect is discussed. The importance of preventive check-ups in the field of occupational medicine at the working locations, correspondingly exposed, and particularly the determination of chromium in the urine are emphasized. © 1979 Springer-Verlag 1979.
