Résumé

The epidemiology of acute leukemia (AL) in children in Afro-descendant (AD) populations is poorly described, and survival is often considered worse in these populations. The aim of this study is to describe the epidemiology and prognosis of childhood AL in the AD population of the French West Indies/French Guiana (FWI/FG).
