In this context, we used registry data to estimate incidence and mortality due to hematological malignancies and to compare them with France and tropical Latin America. ICD codes C90 and C88 were compiled between 2005 and 2014. The direct standardization of age structure was performed using the world population. Survival analysis was performed, and Kaplan\u2013Meier curves were drawn. The overall standardized incidence rate was 32.9 per 100,000 male years and 24.5 per 100,000 female years. Between 2005 and 2009, the standardized incidence rate was 29.6 per 100,000 among men and 23.6 per 100,000 among women, and between 2010 and 2014, it was 35.6 per 100,000 among men and 25.2 per 100,000 among women. Multiple myeloma\/plasmocytoma and mature t\/NK cell lymphomas, notably adult t-cell lymphoma\/leukemia due to HTLV-1 infection, were the two most common hematologic malignancies and causes of death. Non-Hodgkin\u2019s lymphoma incidence estimates were greater than global estimates. After adjusting for age, sex, and type of malignancy, people born in a foreign country independently had a poorer case-fatality rate, presumably reflecting difficulties in accessing care. The epidemiology of hematological malignancies in French Guiana has features that distinguish it from mainland France or from Latin America. The incidence of multiple myeloma and adult t-cell lymphoma\/leukemia was significantly greater in French Guiana than in France or other Latin American countries.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/cancers16112128","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,3]],"date-time":"2024-06-03T08:19:42Z","timestamp":1717402782000},"page":"2128","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["The Epidemiological Particularities of Malignant Hemopathies in French Guiana: 2005\u20132014"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9397-3204","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mathieu","family":"Nacher","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"CIC INSERM 1424, Centre Hospitalier Andr\u00e9e Rosemon, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"},{"name":"D\u00e9partement Formation Recherche Sant\u00e9, Universit\u00e9 de Guyane, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"},{"name":"Amazonian Institute for Population Health, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Qiannan","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Registre des Cancers de Guyane, Centre Hospitalier Andr\u00e9e Rosemon, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Beatrice","family":"Cenciu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"H\u00f4pital de Jour Adultes, Centre Hospitalier Andr\u00e9e Rosemon, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alolia","family":"Aboikoni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CIC INSERM 1424, Centre Hospitalier Andr\u00e9e Rosemon, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"},{"name":"Service d\u2019H\u00e9patogastroent\u00e9rologie, Centre Hospitalier Andr\u00e9e Rosemon, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Florin","family":"Santa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Service de M\u00e9decine, Centre Hospitalier Andr\u00e9e Rosemon, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fabrice","family":"Quet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CIC INSERM 1424, Centre Hospitalier Andr\u00e9e Rosemon, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fanja","family":"Vergeade","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Service de Sant\u00e9 Publique, Centre Hospitalier de l\u2019Ouest Guyanais, Saint Laurent du Maroni 97320, French Guiana"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4000-4981","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Antoine","family":"Adenis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CIC INSERM 1424, Centre Hospitalier Andr\u00e9e Rosemon, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"},{"name":"D\u00e9partement Formation Recherche Sant\u00e9, Universit\u00e9 de Guyane, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"},{"name":"Amazonian Institute for Population Health, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6202-5762","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nathalie","family":"Deschamps","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CIC INSERM 1424, Centre Hospitalier Andr\u00e9e Rosemon, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5975-2627","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kinan","family":"Drak Alsibai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Registre des Cancers de Guyane, Centre Hospitalier Andr\u00e9e Rosemon, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"},{"name":"Centre de Ressources Biologiques Amazonie, Centre Hospitalier de Cayenne, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"},{"name":"Department of Pathology, Centre Hospitalier Andr\u00e9e Rosemon, Cayenne 97300, French Guiana"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"(2020, October 07).
