Abstract Objective To study the long-term effect on lymphocyte micronucleus and its clinical significance for the three victims seventheen years after Shanghai "6.25"60Co radiation accident.Method The MN and MNC frequency were observed by CBMN method.Results The MN and MNC frequency were still higher than normal even 17 years after the exposure.The MN frequency is related with the former radiation dose.The MNC consisting of ≥ 2MN is the hightest for "Long", but for"Jun"it consisted of 1 MN.The MN frequency is lower 17 years after the exposure than that of 5 years, but higher than 10 years.Conclusions The MN is one of important signs for long-term radiation effect.Special attention should be payed to the high level of MN remaining in the body for so long time.
