Abstract

Two hundred Han:NMRI mice of both sexes were kept for their natural life-span to obtain information about the spontaneous tumour spectrum of this strain. Neoplasms were seen in 72% of the males and 64% of the females. Lung tumours, Harderian gland tumours, liver and adrenal gland neoplasms were common in males, while ovary tumours and lung tumours were the most frequent neoplasms in females.
