The aim of our work was to identify occupational exposures at the origin of bronchopulmonary cancers (PBC ) in a population of patients followed in the Pneumology Department of the University Hospital Center (CHU) H???di Chaker of Sfax and to determine the causes of under-reporting in occupational diseases. As a result, Any incident case of primary PBC, diagnosed in 2015 in the Pneumology Department of the CHU H???di Chaker of Sfax was included in the study. Exposure to occupational respiratory carcinogens was studied from a standardized occupational interrogation. If the subject fulfilled the various conditions listed in the tables of occupational diseases provided for by article 3 of law number 94-28 of 21 February 1994, a declaration of occupational disease was made. Our study revealed that the imputability of PBC to occupational origin is far from negligible. It contrasts with an under-reporting of occupational diseases. To remedy this shortcoming is to establish a more effective policy for the identification of occupational exposure to carcinogens.
