ResumoIn 1975, the Brain Tumor Registry of Japan (BTRJ) was founded to investigate the statistical characteristics of brain tumors in Japan.The Committee of the BTRJ (Ex-Chairpersons: Keiji Sano, Kintomo Takakura, and Kazuhiro Nomura) has published 12 reports.The 12 th report of the BTRJ, which includes 82,844 primary and metastatic brain tumor cases from 1984 to 2000, was issued in 2009.Here, we publish the 13 th edition of the BTRJ.This edition contains the statistical data of 16,338 patients in Japan with primary and metastatic brain tumors from 2001 to 2004.These data were collected via the Internet Data and Information Center for Medical Research in the University Hospital Medical Information (UMIN) system, instead of via a paper registration form.We hope that these data will be more reliable, given the use of computerized systems.This edition includes the frequency, anatomical distribution, patient age and sex, and survival data for all brain tumor cases, according to the World Health Organization (WHO) 2007 brain tumor classification.We hope that this edition will provide internationally valuable information to the fields of neurosurgery and neuro-oncology and contribute to the development of successful treatments for patients with brain tumors.
