Chronic lymphocytic leukemia in Maghreb and Europe. A comparison between Algiers and Amiens from 1966 to 1976.

Abstract:

:The frequency of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) varies a great deal from one population to another. We have undertaken to compare the aspects of CLL in Maghreb and Europe through two series of comparable importance, studied during the same period and under similar conditions in Algiers and Amiens. This comparison shows, in Algeria, a lower frequency, a very marked male predominance, a high proportion of patients with a normal or high rate of gammaglobulins and an almost complete lack of hypogammaglobulinemia. Demographic (compared structure of populations), technical (medical density, availability of laboratory examinations), and ethnic (rarity of CLL in some populations) factors are to be taken into consideration in explaining these differences.
