All the Clinical Histories of all the patients older than 15 years old admitted to the Antonio Luaces Iraola Hospital were reviewed, being the Universe and the Sample conformed by 109 cases. The incidence was 95.22 per 100,000 inhabitants per year, more frequent in males and in those over 60 years old.
