Data from the Registry of Digestive tumours of the Departement of Cote d'Or (France) were used to study the characteristics of gastrointesti nal non-Hodgkin's lymphomas in the 1976-90 period. The mean annual age -standardized incidence rate was 0.94 per 100000 for men, and 0.54 per 100000 for women. Incidence Varied little during the study period. Ov erall 5-year survival rate was 34.3 +/- 5.6%.
